This was disclosed by Banji Akintoye, leader of the Ilana Omo Oodua group, a coalition of Yoruba secessionist groups.
A statement by Akintoye’s media aide Maxwell Adeleye, said, the gunmen dressed in military outfits abducted Igboho’s wife after killing seven other occupants of the home.
“The assailants were all dressed in military uniform and spoke French language fluently.”
The attack on the Yoruba activist’s home comes less than three days to the planned “Yoruba Nation” rally scheduled to hold on July 3 in Lagos.
