How Ibrahim Dende Quietly Gifted Igboho Millions in Tough Times
Yoruba Nation activist Chief Majasola Sunday Igboho has publicly showered praises on businessman Ibrahim Dende, describing him as a rare man with a generous heart who stood by him during one of the most difficult periods of his life.
According to Igboho, after he was released from detention in the Benin Republic, Dende immediately reached out to him and asked about his next destination.
Igboho revealed that he told Dende he was planning to travel to Germany with his wife and that the total cost of their flight tickets was about ₦6 million.
But what happened next shocked him.
Instead of sending the exact amount, Dende reportedly asked for his bank account details and transferred ₦20 million — far more than the requested sum. According to Igboho, Dende told him the extra money might be useful for other expenses.
Igboho also recalled the moment his issues with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu were eventually resolved through the intervention of His Royal Majesty, Oba Rashidi Ladoja. He described the joy he felt at that moment as overwhelming.
He further revealed that when he finally returned to Nigeria, the very first person he met was Dende, who again supported him with another ₦10 million.
Igboho explained that the money is currently helping him host visitors because his bank account is still frozen by the government.
In his words, he believes anyone who dislikes Dende must be under a cǔrse, emphasizing how deeply grateful he is for the support and kindness he received during his trials.
