A fresh political controversy is gaining attention online after a video circulating on social media appeared to show Nigerian activist and politician Omoyele Sowore making strong remarks about Yoruba self-determination activist Sunday Igboho.
In the clip being shared across several platforms, Sowore allegedly described Igboho as “just a nuisance” and challenged him openly, saying he should stop him whenever he sees him.
The comments did not stop there. Sowore was also quoted as saying that Nnamdi Kanu is “far better” than Igboho, a statement that has quickly fueled debate among Nigerians online.
Video Circulates Online
The video reportedly surfaced on X (formerly Twitter) and has since been widely reposted by users discussing political activism and separatist movements in Nigeria.

While the clip is spreading quickly, the full context of the conversation has not yet been widely reported by major news outlets. However, the remarks have already triggered strong reactions among supporters and critics of the three figures involved.
Background of the Figures Involved
Sowore is a well-known activist and former presidential candidate who has been vocal about political reform in Nigeria. As the founder of the Sahara Reporters, he has often taken strong positions on issues involving governance, corruption, and democracy.
Sunday Igboho, on the other hand, rose to prominence during calls for a Yoruba nation, advocating for greater autonomy for the Yoruba people.
Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has also been a controversial figure due to his campaign for an independent Biafran state.
Reactions Online
The alleged remarks by Sowore have sparked mixed reactions across social media.
Some users praised him for speaking openly about political figures, while others criticized the comments as unnecessary attacks that could deepen tensions between different activist groups.
Political observers note that public disagreements between prominent activists are not new in Nigeria’s political landscape, but such exchanges often ignite strong reactions online.
A Growing Political Conversation
As the video continues to circulate, many Nigerians are debating what it means for the broader political conversation in the country.
Some analysts say the incident highlights the complex relationships between different activist movements, while others believe it simply reflects the heated tone that political discussions can take on social media.
For now, the remarks remain a topic of discussion online as Nigerians continue to react and debate the issues raised in the viral clip.
