According to the police, Wynne is suspected of using “Iva Valley Bookshop” and “STARS of Nations Schools” as fronts for his subversive activities, aimed at destabilizing Nigeria’s political landscape.
Authorities have already arrested nine individuals believed to be Wynne’s associates. The suspects reportedly received foreign financial support to carry out their plans. The police have urged the public to provide any information that could lead to Wynne’s capture, emphasizing the seriousness of the allegations and the potential threat to national security.
Ongoing investigations focus on the extent of Wynne’s operations, his connections, and the funding sources behind the alleged plot. The case has raised significant concerns about possible foreign interference in Nigeria’s domestic affairs, especially at a time when the country is striving for political stability. The police are committed to uncovering all details and ensuring those involved are brought to justice.
Authorities are intensifying efforts to apprehend Wynne, describing his arrest as critical to maintaining peace and order in the country. The situation remains dynamic as more details emerge from the investigation.
