The Nigeria Police Force, on Monday, declared a British national, Andrew Wynne, also known as Andrew Povich, and a Nigerian, Lucky Obiyan, wanted for allegedly plotting to overthrow the democratically elected government in the country.
The police accused the British national of building a network of sleeper cells to topple the government and plunge the nation into chaos.
Addressing journalists in Abuja, the Force spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, said Wynne rented a space at Labour House and established a school to serve as a decoy.
He said, “The Nigeria Police Force has launched a comprehensive investigation into the activities of foreign national and subversive elements plotting to undermine the democratically elected government in Nigeria through unconstitutional regime change and orchestrating violence across the country.

In a related development, the police also declared an investigative journalist, David Hundeyin wanted in connection with the ongoing prosecution of Isaac Bristol, who is accused of operating the prominent anonymous whistleblower account PIDOM Nigeria.
The announcement, made on Tuesday by Force Public Relations Officer ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, comes as Bristol faces charges of money laundering, cybercrime, and unlawfully disseminating classified documents.
