Despite the attack on Sunday Igboho house early morning on Thursday, co-organizers of the Yoruba Nation rally, Ilana Omo Oodua (IOO), have vowed to proceed with or without the secessionist agitator.

According to the co-organizers, they stated that the gathering is scheduled for Saturday, July 3 in Lagos.

Igboho called off the march on Thursday after Nigerian forces stormed his home in the Soka area Ibadan on Thursday.

But his partners have insisted they will proceed, vowing that no amount of intimidation will make them bow.

He reacted to an enquiry after the Police warned that in Lagos.

Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu warned that anyone caught participating will be dealt with within the ambits of the law.

The Gani Fawehimi Freedom Park in Ojota is the venue of the rally.

“What did you expect the Police to say? They are obeying the federal government. The Police told us not to hold the rally in Ogun and others but we did.

“It’s not compulsory that Sunday Igboho attends. I am telling you now that the Yoruba Nation rally will hold.

“The Ilana Omo Oodua under the leadership of Professor Akintoye already made it clear that we will come out,” the co-organizer who did not want his name on print said.
