The Nigeria Police Force has declared Andrew Wynne, a British national also known as Andrew Povich or Drew Povey, wanted for allegedly plotting to overthrow President Bola Tinubu’s government.
Wynne reportedly rented space at Labour House, Abuja, for a bookshop and established “STARS of Nations Schools” as a front for his activities.
Police spokesperson, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, disclosed that Wynne orchestrated and funded the August protests, providing financial and operational guidance for an unconstitutional regime change.
The police have launched a comprehensive investigation, leading to the arrest of nine suspects believed to be part of the plot. The Department of State Services (DSS) had previously detained some Polish nationals during the protests, although they were later released.
Labour leader Joe Ajaero was also questioned by the police due to Wynne’s association with Labour House.
