Wole Soyinka Condemns Nigerian Government's Actions Against Sunday Igboho

Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka has strongly criticized the Nigerian government for its handling of the invasion of Yoruba nation agitator Sunday Igboho's home in Ibadan on July 1, 2021. Soyinka condemned the government's actions as criminal, pointing out the loss of human lives and the unjustifiable assault during the operation by the DSS and the Nigerian army.

He emphasized the need for security agencies to focus on curbing widespread insecurity in the country rather than targeting peaceful agitators. The incident has sparked controversy and condemnation, especially in the South West region.
