The Nigerian government responded Sunday to a US court telling the FBI to release information on President Bola Tinubu. Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga said these reports have been public for over thirty years. He told reporters that nothing in these documents shows the Nigerian leader's wrongdoing.
Judge Beryl Howell made this ruling Tuesday after American Aaron Greenspan asked her to reconsider an earlier decision. The judge stated that keeping these records hidden makes no logical sense. Greenspan claimed the FBI broke information laws when they failed to release documents about investigations into Tinubu.
Some people say Tinubu gave up $460,000 to American authorities in 1993 after officials connected the money to drug trafficking. Onanuga shared his response on the social media platform X. He emphasized that FBI Agent Moss's reports have been available for more than 30 years.
The presidential team maintains these documents never implicated their boss in any crime. Onanuga mentioned that legal experts are currently reviewing what the court decision means for them. This marks another chapter in ongoing questions about the Nigerian president's past financial dealings.
