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 News360 Nigeria reports.

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.

In Nigeria nobody’s hands is truly ever clean. So let them face their case. If hundeyin is innocent he shouldn’t be hiding.

How many times?

Do we have an extradition treaty with Ghana. They can start from there.

Quite well said

Tinubu is a tyrannical block head

i knew that David time is up
investigative journalist my foot ,a very stunch Peter Obi supporter

he has pockets all the thugs, opposition, military,police,market women,media,labour movement and All big political establishment

He’s been begging for it since ,there’s difference between hate speech/disinformation and free speech .

To those that might say this is attack on free press ,I believe if your neighbor is gossiping about you ,you will confront him or her to provide evidence,you will not say it’s free speech.

Also ,to those that call him “investigative journalist” pls tell us one thing he personally investigated. So much for titles in Nigeria .

Investigative journalism is not meant to be one sided.of course he is being bankrolled by some politicians from his hideout in Ghana.

In Nigeria, there is freedom of speech but no freedom after speech. Quite sad.

Not only in Nigeria. There is freedom of speech, but there is also freedom for law enforcement to arrest. A guy was jailed in Canada for threats.

Issokay.

Hunger go finished you. Just wait and see...I believe u don't have a car or generator,so no need of asking you the price of fuel. Peter Obi is greater than all your generation put together!!! Miscreant

It's not rocket science to know Hundeyin was working for or with PIDOM.

The most useless security forces in the world. if the idi*ts are not stealing, then they are harassing or terrorizing.



Look at how they are looking for journalist up and down, using the looking for part, to siphon money from the budget.

Witch-hunt.

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.... All the nairaland rhesus monkeys go gather here today. Oya food don don!!!

See them, shameless pigs. Even Warthogs better pass these totally vseless fellows.

Someone said, during the course of my activism, while I use one hand to fight the entrenched criminals, I reserved the other hands to defend myself against the people I'm fighting for!

Typical examples of the shameless pigs casting aspersions on David. Damnit, they're not even up to a pig... Now, they're squeaky, dirty, hungry piglets that grunts like though on steroids!

Now, let's deflate your fat burging smelly guts.
Nigeria as presently is, do not have the diplomatic strength, political connections internationally to extradite even a terrorist, not to talk of a journalist! Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣 if not, Ekpa for dey NIGERIA by now!

And as for that smelly old man in Aso Rock, can a drug dealer extradite a journalist currently on exile? Hell no!

The rogue do not have the political fortune to do that! Person wey no fit go where better democracy dey happen except France, due to his Link to a well known criminal from that angle!

Kpatakpata kpatakpata 8 years he go comot, na bros Seyi & others I dey pity for.... hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣 because na him go see the Shege wey he papa dey create!

Hahaha 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣..... This one? Person wey don die finish!

If not, tell me how who dey alive go comment wetin he comment?

There were rumours that David Hundeyin gave the PIDOM guy some secret documents and even blackmail documents to post.

The way David Hundeyin seized control of the PIDOM account is somewhat suspicious.

In an interview with News Central Television, David Hundeyin had claimed he had received the login details from PIDOM and NIA agents attempted to hack his (Hundeyin's) twitter account.

I was surprised that PIDOM could not log into his (PIDOM's) account himself, and announced he was being held by security agents. Instead, Hundeyin claimed he (PIDOM) sent Hundeyin the login details of PIDOM's account.

For what exactly?

Usually, if a new user attempts to log into twitter or social media accounts, a notification is sent to the owner's email or phone to enable the new device. If this was not done in the PIDOM/Hundeyin conspiracy, it would only mean that David Hundeyin had logged into the account himself with his own device in the past, which would mean that the device was registered. In addition, how come PIDOM had access to his phone while being held by security agents? Didn't the police say PIDOM smashed his phone and attempted to flush it down the toilet?

Hundeyin had claimed he changed all his devices when NIA attempted to hack him. So how come David Hundeyin could easily log into the twitter account of PIDOM with his new devices if he didn't have access to the email or phone number of PIDOM? It would only point to the fact that the entire login details of PIDOM were registered with emails and phone numbers David Hundeyin had access to ab initio, which leads to a fundmental question:

Was PIDOM an employee of David Hundeyin to do the dirty blackmail jobs David Hundeyin did not want to risk doing?

As for any security agent attempting to hack anyone, they can easily do it. They have the means to intercept messages, jam communication, and pinpoint your location. Many years ago when I tried to be a spy, there were things I could do and pinpoint the closest mast to a mobile phone; all I needed was the phone number. Once you receive a phone call or log into the internet, your location is compromised. So if you think you are invisible in cyberspace or mobile telecommunication, you are not. The security agencies know where you are. They hear what you say. They read what you write.

Or who do you think might have leaked the infamous "Yes Daddy" phone call?

Back to the matter, David Hundeyin himself had posted some classified documents claiming to be Nigeria's war strategy against Niger Republic when the military junta took over in Niger. Detailing war plans, real or imagined, was a national secruity threat, and every trained journalist knows that. In another interview of arrogant chest thumping, Hundeyin had claimed he stopped Nigeria from going to war against Niger.

As what/who?

David Hundeyin also published a Guinean passport identity page allegedly belonging to the winner of the 2023 elections. He also made some allegations he could not substantiate, especially the drug matter that he could not prove.

He further published salacious stories that were embellished with falsehood.

Anyway, David Hundeyin would do well to defend himself. Some of the things he did against Nigeria like publishing the movements of troops is a national security threat. If anyone tries such in the US or Saudi Arabia, no one would defend the person.

Finally, we need to stop this habit of always saying people who commit crimes must not answer because we seem to like them or they are fighting for the good of everyone. No society can develop like that.

As for those committing crimes and being hailed, always remember that when the shit hits the fan and you are neck deep in it, those who hailed you have zero influence to bail you. Just be ethical in your work and do not blackmail people for money. Then those who are paid to do the dirty jobs others don't want to touch, have you ever asked yourself why those paying you refuse to do those dirty jobs themselves?

The simple answer is that someone needs to be set up to take the calamitous fall when anarchy begins.

Be guided. Your freedom is precious.

Has cockroach ever be innocent in the gathering of fowls?

FG will definitely hang on him charges that will be treasonable just to silence him.

What of Russia that frequently jails journalists? Or that American guy - Julian Assange, or the several jailed in the UK. Problem with journalism - too many quacks. It should ideally be a regulated profession, else a lot of them will keep running foul of the law.

This is what the Government wants ..... To stifle freedom of speech!!!

Bandits and Kidnappers are displaying on tiktok their ransome and guns but the government says its investigative journalist that is their problem.
