Nigeria is in trouble, and the world at large either doesn’t know or doesn’t care. So, our mission is to change that.
This website is but one line of defense against the continual attack on the future of Nigeria and the well-being of Nigerians. We cannot allow leaders who have stepped back to be spectators to our demise, and foreigners who have no regard for our children a free pass to come into Yorubaland, strip us of our resources, and abuse our women and children.
Sunday Igboho has been instrumental in organizing able-bodied men of Yorubaland into a community that is willing to stand in protection of its own. He is the only chief in recent years who has had the boldness and courage to speak on behalf of people of Yoruba descent.
To the Honorable Senator ____________ –
I am _____________ of (city/district). I’m writing to you as a concerned citizen and as someone who understands that the value of basic human rights far surpasses the inconvenience of speaking out. If we’ve learned anything over the last two years as we fight to live and thrive during a global pandemic, it is that we are all connected, and thus bear some responsibility for one another.
Senator, I won’t take too much of your time. You are well-respected American leader and an influential member of the global community. Would you help bring attention to illegal detention of Sunday Igboho and call for his unconditional release?
Sunday Adeniyi Adeyemo (known locally as Sunday Igboho) is a Yoruban father, husband, and entrepreneur. He has made a name for himself, not by choice, but by necessity. Senator, we know that Nigeria has many problems that only Nigeria can fix. But I am asking you to sound an alarm to bring attention to the egregious crimes Mr. Igboho was incarcerated for speaking out against. These include: the kidnap and rape of Yoruba children and women farmers by Fulani herdsmen without consequence. The theft and destruction (often by burning) of Yoruba farmland in a country where the poverty rate tops 40%. The lack of oversight, trust, and protection from Nigerian police, many of whom have themselves been accused of the rape, torture and murder of Nigerians.
While we can’t fix Nigeria, we can call for the unconditional release of Sunday Igboho, one of Nigeria’s most dynamic freedom fighters, and allow him to take his wife and children to safety outside of Nigeria. Without pressure from the American government, we fear Mr. Igboho may be executed while in Beninese custody, or once he is freed from custody.
Please help us support a man who is fighting to protect women and children half a world away. I appreciate your service, and I don’t take our freedoms for granted.
Sincerely,
______________
