Force spokesman Olumuyiwa Adejobi, speaking at the Force Headquarters in Abuja, revealed that the British national rented a space at Labour House, Abuja, for an ‘Iva Valley Bookshop’ and set up ‘STARS of Nations Schools’ as a front for his subversive activities.
Adejobi, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, informed journalists that documentary evidence and confessions indicated that Andrew Wynne issued directives and monitored the progress of the August protest.
The senior police officer added that the foreign national provided financial support and operational guidance to facilitate an unconstitutional change of government in Nigeria.
He said, “The Nigeria Police Force has launched a comprehensive investigation into the activities of a 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 destabilize the country.
“Preliminary findings suggest they orchestrated and funded violent protests, disseminated false information, and engaged in other unlawful activities to create anarchy and justify their illegal plot to overthrow the democratically elected government.”
