I’m not a fugitive, Briton declared wanted by Nigerian police says

Andrew Wynne, a British national recently declared wanted by the Nigerian Police Force, has refuted the serious allegations against him.

During a press conference on Monday, Muyiwa Adejobi, the force’s public relations officer, accused Wynne of conspiring to overthrow President Bola Tinubu and establishing a network of sleeper cells aimed at destabilising the government and inciting chaos in the country.

In response to these claims, Wynne addressed the situation in an interview on Channels TV, expressing surprise at being labeled a fugitive, stating he was unaware of such accusations.

He said: “I am not aware that I am a fugitive. I am not aware that I am running away from the law. I have been visiting Nigeria for 25 years and have had a bookshop in the NLC office right in the centre of Abuja for seven years. All that time, of course, the security forces have paid no interest in me.

“I have had one nationality. The name on my passport is Andrew Wynne, and I operate with a nickname. I think it really started as differentiating in the sense of the broad political education work that I do with Bookshop.

“I am more than happy to talk to the police and have a discussion on WhatsApp or Zoom. I am more than happy to go to London and meet with officials from the Nigerian High Commission. If they want to start a conversation, then I think that is more than adequate.”
