As reported by Nigerian Tribune, he stated this while speaking during a visit to the Olowo of Owo, Oba Ajibade Gbadegesin Ogunoye III, at his palace in Ondo State.

“When my house was invaded, they wanted to kill me, but failed. Some said my intestines were shattered, others said my leg was broken, but there was nothing of such. They fired guns at me very well, but the prayers of you, my fathers, on me were answered.”

According to Igboho, his so-called ‘trusted’ friend had told the agents not to let the cat escape, which led to the security operatives killing the animal.

“When I opened the door of my room for them, they saw my cat on the bed. One of my friends, whom I entrusted with a secret, had told them not to let the cat go. So they killed the cat and wrapped it in clothes like a corpse. They destroyed everything in the house and killed one of my brothers alongside one other person, and they left.”
