The Nigeria Police Force has declared a Briton, Andrew Wynne, and a Nigerian, Lucky Obiyan, wanted for allegedly plotting to overthrow President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

The police also alleged that the Briton, who is also known as Andrew Povich, built a network of sleeper cells to topple the government.

The Force Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, disclosed this to journalists on Monday in Abuja.

He said the foreign national rented a space at Labour House in Abuja and established a school to serve as a decoy.

The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, had earlier filed a six-count charge of treason and other criminal charges against Wynne and other organisers of the recent #EndBadGovernance protests at the Federal High Court, Abuja.

The IGP alleged that the defendants conspired to commit a felony, including treason, between July 1 and August 4.

Adejobi 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.

“Following extensive intelligence gathering and collaboration with other security agencies, nine suspects have been apprehended, who received substantial financial backing from foreign sources to destabilise the country.
