Police Declare Investigative Journalist David Hundeyin Wanted

The Nigerian Police Force has declared David Hundeyin, the Editor-in-Chief of West Africa Weekly, wanted in connection with the ongoing prosecution of Isaac Bristol, who is accused of operating the prominent anonymous whistleblower account PIDOM Nigeria.

The announcement, made on Tuesday by Force Public Relations Officer ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, comes as Bristol faces charges of money laundering, cybercrime, and unlawfully disseminating classified documents.

Bristol, arraigned at the Federal High Court in Abuja, has been remanded at Kuje Correctional Centre. The police have now named Hundeyin and Michael Temidayo Alade as alleged accomplices in the case.

Hundeyin, known for his award-winning investigative journalism exposing corruption and human rights abuses, is currently in exile to avoid persecution by Nigerian authorities.
