August 04, (THEWILL) –Â An Oyo High Court has granted an ex-parte motion restraining the Department of State Services (DSS) and the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) from arresting, intimidating, harassing, and freezing bank accounts of Yoruba Nation agitator, Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho.
The court, presided over by Justice Ladiean Akintola, granted the restraining order following an ex-parte motion moved by Igboho’s lawyer, Yomi Aliu (SAN), at the court on Wednesday.
Igboho had sued the DSS and the AGF, demanding N5.5 billion in damages for the raid on his Ibadan residence on July 1.
Aliu expressed confidence the AGF Abubakar Malami (SAN) will not disobey the court order, stressing that it was given directly against his office.
Justice Akintola adjourned hearing of the suit to August 18.
