‘Nigerian Govt working with UK, others to bring me to Abuja’ – David Hundeyin cries out

An investigative journalist, David Hundeyin has lamented that the Nigerian government is planning to bring him back to Abuja.

Hundeyin explained that the Federal Government, through the National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu, had last week engaged Kenya, Ghana and the UK authorities to arrest him.

Speaking on Monday in a lengthy post on X, he accused the NSA of working tirelessly to bring him “as a trophy for Emperor Bola Ahmed”.

While expressing disappointment over perceived lack of support from Nigerians, Hundeyin urged Ribadu to leave him alone “and stop talking to Ruto and Akufo-Addo about refouling me”.

The investigative journalist further assured the Nigerian government that he would no longer report about the country again.

“Even right now, Nuhu Ribadu’s NSA Office has been busy speaking to the authorities in Kenya, Ghana and the UK as recently as last week, while they continue to work on their obsession of bringing me to Abuja as a trophy for Emperor Bola Ahmed.

“And yet what is apparently important for public discussion is who I married or who I had sex with, plus some malaria hallucinations from a failed former journalist who never accomplished anything in his career.

“These are the things my people are discussing. Even at this late hour, we don’t know who our enemies are and who is on our side.

“So this is a message to @NuhuRibadu. You can leave me alone and stop talking to Ruto and Akufo-Addo about refouling me. I will not disturb you people anymore. I’ll focus on my Pan-African political commentary and news about the Sahel region, but I’m leaving the Nigerian space for you.

“I clearly overestimated both myself and my people.”

At the end of the day, if people tell themselves a lie long enough that they start to believe it and make real-world decisions based on it, the loser is not me.

My life is an open book. Literally. A 590-page book you can find on Amazon or Roving Heights. There’s nothing about…
