00:00:00,200 –> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Nigeria Police Force has placed twenty million naira’s bounty on

2
00:00:04,160 –> 00:00:08,080
wanted British citizen Andrew Wynn, just as the suspect spoke

3
00:00:08,160 –> 00:00:11,599
from United Kingdom in an online interview with Channel’s Television

4
00:00:11,640 –> 00:00:15,000
on Monday evening, denying the allegation that he plotted to

5
00:00:15,039 –> 00:00:20,600
overthrow Nigeria President Barla Amattenibu. Winn spoke on Monday’s edition

6
00:00:20,760 –> 00:00:24,199
of Channel’s television’s Politics Today from his base in the

7
00:00:24,359 –> 00:00:28,079
United Kingdom. He said he was not aware he had

8
00:00:28,120 –> 00:00:32,479
been labeled a fugitive. But Winnie declared that he couldn’t

9
00:00:32,560 –> 00:00:35,799
have been skilling to destabilize the leadership of a country

10
00:00:35,840 –> 00:00:40,479
that accommodated him for twenty five years, saying he has

11
00:00:40,560 –> 00:00:44,240
been visiting Nigeria since twenty five years. I am not

12
00:00:44,399 –> 00:00:47,520
aware that I am a fugitive. I am not aware

13
00:00:47,560 –> 00:00:50,600
that I am running away from the law. I have

14
00:00:50,759 –> 00:00:54,039
been visiting Nigeria for twenty five years and have had

15
00:00:54,079 –> 00:00:57,000
a bookshop in the NLC office right in the center

16
00:00:57,039 –> 00:01:01,399
of Abuja for seven years. All that time, of course,

17
00:01:01,759 –> 00:01:05,799
the security forces have pared no interest in me. I

18
00:01:05,959 –> 00:01:09,840
have always had one nationality. The name on my passport

19
00:01:10,000 –> 00:01:13,560
is Andrew Win and I operate with a nickname. I

20
00:01:13,599 –> 00:01:16,799
think it really started as differentiating in the sense of

21
00:01:16,840 –> 00:01:20,359
the broad political education work that I do with the bookshop.

22
00:01:21,120 –> 00:01:23,519
I am more than happy to talk to the police

23
00:01:23,560 –> 00:01:27,079
and have a discussion on WhatsApp or zoo. I am

24
00:01:27,120 –> 00:01:29,560
more than happy to go to London and meet with

25
00:01:29,680 –> 00:01:33,680
officials from the Nigerian High Commission. If they want to

26
00:01:33,760 –> 00:01:37,879
start a conversation, then I think that it’s more than adequate.

27
00:01:38,719 –> 00:01:42,799
When’s wife names withheld, who also spoke on the program,

28
00:01:43,280 –> 00:01:46,920
this starts her husband from the alleged terror art, saying

29
00:01:46,959 –> 00:01:51,760
the allegation was deliberately concocted to which hunt him. Meanwhile,

30
00:01:52,079 –> 00:01:55,640
the Nigeria Police Force has placed a ten million naira’s

31
00:01:55,719 –> 00:01:59,560
bounty on the British national Andrew Win also known as

32
00:01:59,640 –> 00:02:04,599
Andrew Povit or Drupovi and Nigerian Lucky ehis obinion co

33
00:02:04,760 –> 00:02:08,800
were declared wanted over a clock to overthrow President Bollatinubu.

34
00:02:09,599 –> 00:02:13,520
The first spokesperson on MUI were adjab On Money, stated

35
00:02:13,599 –> 00:02:17,479
that the FOS has specifically launched a comprehensive investigation on

36
00:02:17,599 –> 00:02:23,360
how foreign mercenaries and subversive elements plotted to overthrow the democratically.

37
00:02:22,560 –> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 2: Elected in Nigeria.

38
00:02:24,719 –> 00:02:29,319
Speaker 1: A special police gazette bulletin shared with journalists at False Headquarters.

50
00:03:14,919 –> 00:03:18,680
Monday that the British citizen Andrew Wyn has reacted to

51
00:03:18,719 –> 00:03:22,000
the allegation made against him by the Nigeria Police Force

52
00:03:22,039 –> 00:03:25,240
that he plotted during the Endbang Governance protest to overthrow

53
00:03:25,319 –> 00:03:30,120
President Bola Avetelibu, saying protest is not at treasonable at

54
00:03:30,159 –> 00:03:33,240
hence the government should set free all the ten protesters

55
00:03:33,280 –> 00:03:36,120
whom some of them were arraigned before Freederal High courts

56
00:03:36,120 –> 00:03:40,120
sitting in Abuja for terrorism and treasonable felony on Bundai.

57
00:03:40,879 –> 00:03:44,520
According to the letter, as reported by Sahara reporters, the

58
00:03:44,560 –> 00:03:48,919
Briton war was accused of inciting insurrection against President Bolla

59
00:03:49,000 –> 00:03:53,000
Tellubu’s government or the Nigerian government not to treat protests

60
00:03:53,000 –> 00:03:58,080
as treason. Andrew’s bookshop, located at the Abuja headquarters of

61
00:03:58,159 –> 00:04:02,919
the Nigeria Lebel Congress n ELSE was previously raded and sealed.

62
00:04:03,759 –> 00:04:07,879
Sharon Porters added that part of the Bogo’s charges against

63
00:04:08,000 –> 00:04:12,560
him involved enebuling some Enburg governance protesters with intent to

64
00:04:12,560 –> 00:04:17,399
destabilize Nigeria. In a statement on the letterhead of his bookshop,

65
00:04:17,839 –> 00:04:22,240
Povey wrote, protest is not treason. Released all the detainees.

66
00:04:23,079 –> 00:04:27,399
The mass protests over Enburg governance and end Hulder frightened

67
00:04:27,399 –> 00:04:32,800
the government much. Rather than addressing the people’s demands, the government.

68
00:04:32,439 –> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 2: Turned to repression.

69
00:04:34,279 –> 00:04:38,199
Speaker 1: Povey further stated perhaps forty people were modeled by the

70
00:04:38,279 –> 00:04:42,519
police and other security forces, thousands were arrested and many

71
00:04:42,560 –> 00:04:47,560
still remain in captivity in Abuja. The authorities have attacked

72
00:04:47,600 –> 00:04:51,600
the so called leaders and organizers of the protests. Ten

73
00:04:51,639 –> 00:04:56,399
people first ridiculous charges including treason, mutary and levying war

74
00:04:56,480 –> 00:05:00,839
against the state. The n ELSIE promised a general strike

75
00:05:00,959 –> 00:05:05,439
to protect its president Joe Ajiro from arrest and detention

76
00:05:05,639 –> 00:05:09,959
in relation to similar charges. Despite the flimsy nature of

77
00:05:10,000 –> 00:05:13,560
the evidence against the detennees, the first long years in

78
00:05:13,680 –> 00:05:18,160
prison unless the trade union movement is prepared to protect them.

79
00:05:18,360 –> 00:05:22,639
On the seventh of August, the NLC said it condensed

80
00:05:22,639 –> 00:05:26,480
in the strongest terms the human rights violations perpetrated by

81
00:05:26,560 –> 00:05:31,439
security forces against peaceful protesters. The first person to be

82
00:05:31,600 –> 00:05:35,399
arrested in this case was Elio Joe Openwa. He is

83
00:05:35,439 –> 00:05:39,600
a former colleague of Joe Agiro, working for n UEE

84
00:05:39,920 –> 00:05:44,519
the Electricians’ Union as an organizer in Abuja. He is

85
00:05:44,600 –> 00:05:47,920
also the vice chair of the NLC in Kogie State.

86
00:05:48,800 –> 00:05:51,600
He has now been detained for over four weeks with

87
00:05:51,759 –> 00:05:55,959
no tangible evidence. His family was told that he had

88
00:05:56,000 –> 00:05:59,600
received a onceapped message from one of the other alleged leaders.

89
00:06:00,360 –> 00:06:04,439
This was after Elojo had actually been detained. The ten

90
00:06:04,519 –> 00:06:08,079
littenees have been accused of conspiracy to commit a range

91
00:06:08,079 –> 00:06:13,160
of serious crimes. However, the valley know each other. Five

92
00:06:13,199 –> 00:06:16,040
of them may have been members of a WhatsApp group

93
00:06:16,120 –> 00:06:20,000
set up to organize the protests in Abuja, but the

94
00:06:20,079 –> 00:06:23,319
other five are unknown to these comrades. There may be

95
00:06:23,439 –> 00:06:26,839
a few of the flag women protesters from Kanohu were

96
00:06:26,839 –> 00:06:29,720
added to extend the range of the organizers to cover

97
00:06:29,839 –> 00:06:33,920
the men protests from Sokoto to my Bugourri. There appears

98
00:06:33,959 –> 00:06:36,920
to be a conflict between the government and the police

99
00:06:36,959 –> 00:06:41,600
investigating this case. They heard of the Intelligence Restaurants team.

100
00:06:41,800 –> 00:06:45,560
Ayati told the Dettanese lawyers that he would have released them,

101
00:06:45,920 –> 00:06:49,160
but that he held orders from above not to seldom free.

102
00:06:49,959 –> 00:06:52,759
So the police have developed what appears to be a

103
00:06:52,839 –> 00:06:55,000
ridiculous case involving the owner.

104
00:06:54,759 –> 00:06:56,399
Speaker 2: Of Ivan Valley Books.

105
00:06:56,800 –> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: They are claiming that he goes under the name of

106
00:06:59,319 –> 00:07:03,000
Andrew Pov, which a Russian sounding name, and that he

107
00:07:03,079 –> 00:07:07,360
has now left Nigeria for Russia. Neither of these claims

108
00:07:07,399 –> 00:07:12,000
are true. Yomi, who works for Iva Valley Books, has,

109
00:07:12,480 –> 00:07:16,560
like the other dettendees, been treated in a terribly inhumane manner.

110
00:07:17,319 –> 00:07:20,160
He was arrested in front of his wife and three

111
00:07:20,240 –> 00:07:24,879
year old daughter. All their phones were confiscated by the police.

112
00:07:25,319 –> 00:07:28,480
This was despite appeals from his wife that they needed

113
00:07:28,519 –> 00:07:31,639
a phone to get money for food. He was then

114
00:07:31,759 –> 00:07:36,279
imprisoned illegally and held in chance, beaten and tortured for

115
00:07:36,399 –> 00:07:40,639
three days. His only involvement was to design flyers for

116
00:07:40,720 –> 00:07:44,639
the protests on the instructions of his boss. The NLC

117
00:07:44,879 –> 00:07:48,240
has shown that it has the power to protect its president.

118
00:07:49,120 –> 00:07:52,319
It now needs to extend this action to protect its

119
00:07:52,319 –> 00:07:57,319
other officers, its members and the general public. We had

120
00:07:57,360 –> 00:08:00,519
reported that the Nigeria government, through the oar of the

121
00:08:00,560 –> 00:08:05,600
Inspector General of Police LGP, has alleged that one British national,

122
00:08:06,079 –> 00:08:09,920
Andrew Winmen attempt to overthrow President border amed Tenable. Following

123
00:08:09,959 –> 00:08:12,839
the investigation of some senior staff of the Nigeria Label

124
00:08:12,879 –> 00:08:17,920
Congress n LC, Nigeria Police Falls on Monday declared the

125
00:08:17,959 –> 00:08:22,120
British national identified as Andrew win Aka Andrew Povich or

126
00:08:22,199 –> 00:08:26,279
Drew Povi wanted for allegedly plotting to overthrow the President

127
00:08:26,360 –> 00:08:32,159
Boller Tidabu led government. The first Public Relations Officer ACP

128
00:08:32,360 –> 00:08:35,559
we were at the JV in a statement said, following

129
00:08:35,679 –> 00:08:40,879
extensive intelligence gathering and collaboration with other security agencies, nine

130
00:08:40,919 –> 00:08:46,639
suspects have been apprehended who received substantial financial backing from

131
00:08:46,720 –> 00:08:51,440
foreign sources to destabilize the country. Preliminary findings suggest the

132
00:08:51,559 –> 00:08:57,559
orchestrated and funded violent protests, disseminated false information, and engaged

133
00:08:57,600 –> 00:09:01,799
in other unlawful activities to create and justify their illegal

134
00:09:01,840 –> 00:09:07,840
plot to overthrow the democratically elected government. Investigations have identified

135
00:09:07,919 –> 00:09:11,919
a foreign mercenary, Andrew Win, also known as Andrew Povit

136
00:09:12,120 –> 00:09:15,960
or Drew Povin, a British national who built a network

137
00:09:16,000 –> 00:09:18,919
of sleeper cells to topple the government and plunge the

138
00:09:19,039 –> 00:09:23,159
nation into chaos. He rented a space at Labor House,

139
00:09:23,559 –> 00:09:29,000
Abuja for an Eiger Valley bookshop and established starts of

140
00:09:29,159 –> 00:09:34,039
national schools as a cover for his subversive activities. Documentary

141
00:09:34,080 –> 00:09:39,840
evidence and confessions revealed that Andrew Win issued directives, monitored progress,

142
00:09:39,879 –> 00:09:44,159
and provided finance and operational guidance to achieve on constitutional

143
00:09:44,200 –> 00:09:49,200
regime change in Nigeria. He mobilized and deployed several millions

144
00:09:49,200 –> 00:09:53,200
of naira to his Nigerian collaborators, urging them to mobilize

145
00:09:53,200 –> 00:09:57,320
the public to violently strong police facilities and military barracks.

146
00:09:57,600 –> 00:10:01,639
Anticipated a blog back that would instigate international condemnation of

147
00:10:01,679 –> 00:10:06,320
the Nigerian government. The police also said the investigation of

148
00:10:06,360 –> 00:10:10,639
the Nigerian Labor Congress NLC has revealed the level of

149
00:10:10,759 –> 00:10:14,200
involvement of the foreigner as the NLC did not even

150
00:10:14,320 –> 00:10:17,440
know the ring identity of the person also alleged to

151
00:10:17,480 –> 00:10:22,279
be as a foreign mercenary occupying their building. First public

152
00:10:22,360 –> 00:10:27,840
Relations Officer scap of lu Muya adejb while briefing journalists

153
00:10:27,919 –> 00:10:31,559
in Abuja on Bomdai said Andrew built a network of

154
00:10:31,679 –> 00:10:34,879
sleeper cells to topple the government and plunge the nation

155
00:10:35,120 –> 00:10:40,120
into chaos. Similarly, the police declared Lucky in his Obion,

156
00:10:40,519 –> 00:10:44,600
who is alleged to be a local coordinator for Andrew, wanted,

157
00:10:45,080 –> 00:10:48,320
adding that global hunting for them has commenced in connection

158
00:10:48,480 –> 00:10:54,240
with the investigation. According to him, documentary evidence and confessions

159
00:10:54,279 –> 00:10:59,360
revealed that andro Win issued directives, monitored progress and provided

160
00:10:59,440 –> 00:11:04,679
finance operational guidance to achieve on constitutional regime change in Nigeria.

161
00:11:05,399 –> 00:11:10,159
Since the commencement of investigations, Andrew Winn has flamed the country.

162
00:11:10,919 –> 00:11:15,120
He and one of his local coordinators, one Lucky eies Obion,

163
00:11:15,279 –> 00:11:18,759
have accordingly been declared wanted and global hunting for them

164
00:11:18,799 –> 00:11:23,240
has commenced in connection with this investigation of that conversation

165
00:11:23,360 –> 00:11:26,639
with him.

166
00:11:26,840 –> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 3: I am not aware that I am a fugitive. I

167
00:11:29,519 –> 00:11:32,360
am not aware that I am running away from the law.

168
00:11:33,000 –> 00:11:37,279
I’ve been visiting Nigeria for twenty five years. I’ve had

169
00:11:37,320 –> 00:11:40,759
a bookshop in the NLC offices right in the center

170
00:11:40,840 –> 00:11:46,399
of Abuja for seven years, and all that time, of course,

171
00:11:46,720 –> 00:11:51,679
the security forces have paid no interest in me. I

172
00:11:50,960 –> 00:11:55,519
only have one nationality. I’ve only ever had one nationality,

173
00:11:56,320 –> 00:12:00,759
and the name of my passport is Andrew Wynn, and

174
00:12:01,080 –> 00:12:04,759
I operate with a nickname. I mean, I think really

175
00:12:04,840 –> 00:12:09,639
it started as differentiating in a sense that.

176
00:12:09,720 –> 00:12:12,039
Speaker 2: The broadly political.

177
00:12:11,919 –> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 3: Education work I do with the bookshop. I am more

178
00:12:15,639 –> 00:12:18,759
than happy to talk to the police. I’m more than

179
00:12:18,879 –> 00:12:22,759
happy to have a discussion on what’sapp on ZOOM. I’m

180
00:12:22,799 –> 00:12:26,200
more than happy to go to London and meet with

181
00:12:26,799 –> 00:12:31,759
officials from the Nigerian High Commission. If they want to

182
00:12:31,799 –> 00:12:37,799
start the conversation, then I think that is more than adequate.

183
00:12:38,679 –> 00:12:44,039
Speaker 4: Together for nine years as okay, maybe eight years friendship.

184
00:12:44,080 –> 00:12:46,360
I’ve got married last year.

185
00:12:46,720 –> 00:12:48,399
Speaker 2: My husband is firstly accused.

186
00:12:49,960 –> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 4: He’s never been terrouristic. He’s being accused because one is

187
00:12:57,399 –> 00:13:01,360
that in Muya is splin him and not ready to

188
00:13:01,360 –> 00:13:03,840
pay him, and the case is in court even now.

189
00:13:04,279 –> 00:13:07,039
So he’s just doing everything he come to intimidate and

190
00:13:07,120 –> 00:13:09,960
throw him out of the country. He’s saying, you can

191
00:13:11,159 –> 00:13:15,399
because you came in and at the experience dates of

192
00:13:15,519 –> 00:13:18,639
his going back, he had to go back and if

193
00:13:18,720 –> 00:13:22,759
not for all these troubles in and this is September,

194
00:13:23,120 –> 00:13:25,480
so by writing it’s supposed to be back maybe around

195
00:13:25,519 –> 00:13:27,120
twenty something of September.

196
00:13:29,360 –> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 2: One old lady day, bring me in the morning’s away.
