After the expiration of the deadline, the house and cars of the Seriki Fulani in Igangan were torched.

But in a tweet confirming the fire incident, the activist only blamed those he described as suspected arsonist, saying, “My house at Soka Ibadan razed down by suspected arsonists.”
Meanwhile, Igboho has dissociated himself from several accounts on social media platforms, especially Facebook and Twitter, posting unverified information in his name.
Igboho made this clarification while speaking to reporters in a viral video obtained by The Nation.
The Nation reports that many accounts bearing the name and pictures of Sunday Igboho surfaced after his recent ultimatum to herdsmen in Igangan in Ibarapa North Local Government Area to vacate the land.
He however warned Nigerians not to be scammed by persons using his name on social media platforms saying the accounts are being operated fraudulently by impostors.
