Police in Nigeria are searching for a popular UK-based blogger wanted in connection with a cyber-stalking, abduction and murder case.

A Nigeria Police Force wanted poster also linked Dorcas Adeyinka to "injurious falsehood, threat to life and extortion".

They did not provide further details on the case, which the blogger is yet to comment on.

The poster says that if seen, Ms Adeyinka should be arrested and taken to the nearest police station.

"A handsome reward awaits any person(s) with information leading to her arrest," police also said.

Ms Adeyinka is described as a married Yoruba blogger who lives in the UK but frequently visits Nigeria.
