The Nigeria Police Force has placed a N20m bounty on a British national, Andrew Wynne, also known as Andrew Povich, and a Nigerian, Lucky Obiyan.
The police had declared the duo wanted for allegedly plotting to overthrow the democratically elected government in the country.
Addressing journalists on Monday in Abuja, the Force Spokesperson, Muyiwa Adejobi, accused the British national of building a network of sleeper cells to topple the government and plunge the nation into chaos.
Adejobi also revealed that Wynne rented a space at Labour House and established a school to cover up his activities.
“He (Wynne) mobilised and deployed several billions of naira to his Nigerian collaborators, urging them to mobilise the public to violently storm police facilities and military barracks, anticipating a bloodbath that would instigate international condemnation of the Nigerian government. These acts violate the Terrorism (Prevention) Act 2011 and other relevant laws,” the FPRO added.
