The movement is seeking the immediate intervention of the UK Prime Minister and his government in their agitation to set up a country that will be predominantly owned by indigenous Yoruba people.

Igboho has been at the forefront of the actualization of a Yoruba nation.

Recall that Akintoye had accused the Nigerian government of trying to cajole Igboho into withdrawing from the agitations.

The octogenarian said during the agitator’s travails in the Benin Republic, a former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai (retd.), had used his influence as an envoy to sneak a paper to Igboho in prison promising him billions of naira if only he would renounce his agitations for a Yoruba nation.

However, he said Igboho refused to sign the paper, which was later taken away by Buratai.
