The Nigeria Police Force has  declared wanted Andrew Wynne, a British national, accusing him of conspiring to overthrow President Bola Tinubu’s administration. Wynne, who is also known by the aliases Andrew Povich and Drew Povey, is under investigation as part of a broader probe into foreign mercenaries suspected of attempting to undermine Nigeria’s democratically-elected government.

According to Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the spokesperson for the Nigeria Police Force, Wynne reportedly used a rented space at Labour House, Abuja, where he operated an ‘Iva Valley Bookshop’ and founded ‘STARS of Nations Schools’ to mask his alleged subversive activities. Adejobi revealed that evidence, including documents and confessions, indicates that Wynne was involved in directing and overseeing the August protests, providing financial and strategic support aimed at achieving an unconstitutional regime change in Nigeria.
