Human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has declared that detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, is superior to Yoruba activist, Sunday Igboho.
Sowore made the remarks on Monday, the 16th of March, 2026, while speaking with journalists, where he described Igboho as a nuisance and challenged him to confront him whenever they meet.
He spoke in reaction to the solidarity rally he recently led in Aba, Abia State, calling for Kanu’s release.
Sowore said individuals like Igboho are often used to intimidate people from speaking out against injustice.

He also argued that if President Bola Tinubu truly enjoys the backing of 33 governors, there should be no fear of public demonstrations.
“It’s heresy comparing Sunday Igboho to Nnamdi Kanu. Kanu is far better than Igboho.
“I don’t know Igboho too well, but I’ve always stated that his own brand of politics is what they call Amala politics in Oyo state, it is politics of chop l chop. “What Sunday Igboho is going to quickly realize is that he’s going to be in the hall of infamy,” Sowore said.
