Sea King Criticises Sunday Igboho Over Oyo Insecurity Amid Rising Abductions

Olumide Ogunsanwo, popularly known as Sea King, has publicly called out Yoruba Nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo (also known as Sunday Igboho), over the recent wave of insecurity and abductions in Oyo State.

In a video shared on Instagram on Tuesday, Sea King reacted to the reported mass abduction of students and teachers from Community High School, Ahoro-Esinele in Oriire Local Government Area, which occurred on May 15, 2026.

According to reports, one of the abducted teachers, identified as Michael Oyedokun, was later beheaded by the gunmen on May 17, with a disturbing video of the incident circulating online alongside footage of the school principal appealing for government intervention.

Reacting to the development, Sea King questioned Igboho’s silence on the ongoing attacks in the region, recalling his past promises to confront insecurity in Yoruba land.

He accused the activist of political inconsistency, stating that his earlier commitments to mobilise against banditry have not translated into action since returning to Nigeria after years in exile.

“Where’s Sunday Igboho? … You said you wanted to eradicate all the Fulani that are killing people from the land. Where are you now?” Sea King said in the video.

He also linked Igboho’s return to Nigeria and removal from the government’s wanted list earlier in 2026 to his current silence on insecurity concerns.

Opinion

This situation reflects how insecurity issues in Nigeria often become emotionally charged and politically sensitive, especially when public figures and activists are involved. While frustration from citizens is understandable given repeated violent incidents, public accountability should be handled carefully to avoid misinformation or escalating tensions.

More importantly, the core issue remains the persistent insecurity in parts of the country, which requires coordinated government action rather than social media confrontations between individuals. The victims and affected communities ultimately need protection, justice, and long-term solutions—not just public arguments.
