The Department of State Services (DSS) has launched a manhunt for Yoruba Nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho, who it declared wanted.
Spokesperson of the DSS, Dr Peter Afunanya, who disclosed this in a briefing with journalists on Thursday night, said a joint team of security operatives raided Igboho’s residence around 1.34am on Thursday, following intelligence reports he was stockpiling arms.
He said when the security operatives approached the house they came under heavy gunfire by nine of Igboho’s men.
Afunanya said six of the men were armed with AK-47s while the remaining three were armed with pump action rifles.
Two of Igboho’s men were killed while an operative sustained injuries, Afunanya said.
