Igboho had been detained in a prison facility in the Republic of Benin, after he was arrested with Ropo, his wife, at Cardinal Bernardin International Airport, Cotonou, while on his way to Germany in July 2021. The 49-year-old agitator fled Nigeria for Benin Republic after the Nigerian government declared him wanted.
