Justice Ladiean Akintola of Oyo High Court has granted an ex-parte motion restraining the Department of State Security (DSS) and Attorney General of the Federation from arresting, intimidating, harassing, and blocking bank accounts of Chief Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho.
The order was granted following an ex-parte motion moved by his lawyer Chief Yomi Aliu (SAN) at the court on Wednesday.
This came as the DSS also, on Wednesday, produced the 12 detained aides of Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, before the Federal High Court Abuja.

Recall that Justice Obiora Egwuatu had ordered the DSS to produce all the Igboho aides to enable the court inquire into the circumstances surrounding their arrest.
On Monday, when the Igboho aides were brought to court, four out of the 12 were absent.
The 12 detained aides were said to have been arrested in Igboho’s house on July 1 and had approached the court challenging their arrest and continued detention.
The motion developed from the originating motion seeking N500 billion damages for invasion of his house in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on July 1.
Aliu expressed confidence the AGF Abubakar Malami (SAN) will not disobey the court order, stressing that it was given directly against his office.
Hearing in the suit was adjourned to August 18.
