No fewer than 14 Nigerians have been declared wanted by the International Police for offences ranging from human trafficking, drug trafficking, robbery, cheating, and forgery, among others.


PUNCH Metro gathered on Tuesday from Red Notices published on the INTERPOL website that the 14 Nigerians were wanted by different countries where they had allegedly committed the crime.


The notices identified the wanted persons as Felix Omoregie, Jessica Edosomwan, Uche Egbue, Jude Uzoma, Chinedu Ezeunara, Benedict Okoro, Ikechukwu Obidiozor, and Alachi Stanley.


Others are Bouhari Salif, Timloh Nkem, Austine Costa, Okromi Festus, Akachi Vitus and Mary Eze.


According to the notices, Omoregie is wanted by the Belgian authority for allegedly leading a criminal organisation that exploits minors for prostitution.


It read, “Family name: Omoregie, Forename: Felix, Gender: Male, Date of birth: 22/10/1977 (47 years old), Nationality: Nigeria.


“Charges published as provided by requesting entity: Sexual exploitation or exploitation of prostitution of minors over 16 years of age; Sexual exploitation or exploitation of prostitution of another person/Leader of a criminal organisation/Human trafficking for the purpose of prostitution or other forms of sexual exploitation.”


The notice on Edosomwan indicated that she is wanted by the French authority for “multiple victims trafficking in human beings, committed against several persons. Organised gang competition in an operation of placing concealing or converting the proceeds of an offence.”


It indicated that Egbue is wanted by authorities in Argentina for alleged drug trafficking, while Uzoma is wanted by the Brazilian government for alleged drug trafficking, Ezeunara is wanted by the Uruguayan government for alleged drug trafficking, and Okoro is wanted by the Nicaragua government for alleged organised crime.


Further checks on the INTERPOL website by our correspondent on Tuesday indicated that Obidiozor, Vitus and Stanley are wanted by the Angolan government for alleged “kidnapping, robbery and illegal possession of firearms.”


Other notices by the INTERPOL indicated that Eze is wanted by Denmark for alleged “traffic in human beings”, Salif by China for alleged “drug smuggling”, and Nkem by Canada for alleged “sexual assault, and failure to comply with a condition of recognisance.”

INTERPOL, however, noted that the notices were aimed at alerting the public to possible threats and seeking help in locating an individual.


The statement read, “A Red Notice is a request to law enforcement worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action. A Red Notice is not an international arrest warrant.


“The individuals are wanted by the requesting member country or international tribunal. Member countries apply their laws in deciding whether to arrest a person.”


It urged members of the public to report to their local police authorities should they have information about the wanted persons.
