WATCH THE VIDEO HERE A British national wanted by the Nigeria Police Force, Andrew Wynne, has stated that he will not surrender to the authorities, citing concerns for his safety. Wynne was declared wanted on Monday, along with Nigerian citizen Lucky Obiyan, and a N20 million bounty was placed on them for allegedly attempting to overthrow President Bola Tinubu by allegedly funding recent #EndBadGovernance or #Hunger protests. Wynne has denied these accusations, claiming that the police never extended an invitation to him. However, on Tuesday, Force spokesperson Muyiwa Adejobi insisted that Wynne had been invited and had ample opportunity to defend himself. “We have established offences against him, and he’s been declared wanted. His accomplices are already in court. As a leader and businessman, he should come forward and prove his innocence,” Adejobi said. In an interview yesterday, Wynne expressed that he feared for his life if he turned himself in, referring to his employee, Yomi, who he said was tortured by the police for days. . Wynne, aged 70, believes he would not survive the year if he surrendered to the authorities in Nigeria. “The police say if I’m innocent, I should surrender. I am innocent. But like Yomi, who is also innocent and was tortured for three days, should I risk the same fate? I fear for my life. It’s not just about torture; I don’t think I’d survive the year if I returned to Nigeria,” Wynne said.
