Nigerian authorities have declared a British national wanted in connection with an alleged plot to overthrow President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The announcement has sent shockwaves through both local and international communities, raising concerns about political stability in Nigeria.
According to the police, the Briton is accused of orchestrating a conspiracy aimed at destabilizing the current administration. "We have credible evidence linking the suspect to activities designed to undermine the government," said a spokesperson for the Nigerian Police Force. "This is a serious matter, and we are working diligently to bring the individual to justice."
The identity of the British national has not been disclosed, but sources indicate that the suspect has been under surveillance for some time.
The police are urging anyone with information on the whereabouts of the individual to come forward. "We appeal to the public and international partners to assist us in this critical investigation," the spokesperson added.
This incident comes at a time when Nigeria is grappling with various internal challenges, including economic instability and security issues.
The alleged plot has heightened tensions and prompted calls for increased vigilance. "The safety and security of our nation are paramount," said a senior government official. "We will not tolerate any attempts to disrupt the peace and progress of Nigeria."
International reactions have been swift, with several countries expressing their support for Nigeria's efforts to maintain stability. "We stand with Nigeria in its fight against any form of subversion," stated a representative from the British High Commission in Abuja.
