Dorcas Adeyinka, a Nigerian blogger based in the United Kingdom, has been declared wanted by Nigerian Police Force (NPF) over cyberstalking, abduction and murder.

 

 

This was contained in a Special Police Gazette Bulletin shared on its X handle on Sunday, noting that Adeyinka was declared wanted by men of the Inspector-General of Police Monitoring Unit, Abuja, over allegation which also include injurious falsehood, threat to life and extortion.

 

 

The Police bulletin dentified Adeyinka as a Yoruba woman approximately 1.64 meters tall, with an oval face, pointed nose, and distinctive tribal marks. Her other notable features include black hair, a larger head, and a prominent chin.

 

 

The bulletin further noted her last known address as 833 Woolick Road in the United Kingdom. However, it is suspected that Adeyinka frequents several areas within Nigeria, including Ikeja, Ogudu, Fagba, Otta, and Sango in Lagos and Ogun States.

 

 

Meanwhile, the police promised a handsome reward for anyone that would provide information on her whereabouts.

 

 

 

 

 

In April, the family of Dorcas Adeyinka, who was arrested for same cyberbullying and cyberstalking, had accused the Lagos State Police Command of carrying out a lopsided and biased probe.

 

They had said that Adeyinka had been subjected to various threats to life, cyberstalking, and bullying by some suspected Nigerian bloggers who use different social media accounts to name-call and shame her.
