🇳🇬🇺🇸 JUST IN Tinubu’s legal team set to oppose release of U.S. drug-related files by August 28 The FBI, DEA, U.S. Department of Justice and President Bola Tinubu’s legal team have until August 28, 2026 to formally oppose the release of U.S. records connected to the long-running drug-related case involving Tinubu. The records being sought include FBI and DEA files dating back to the 1990s, including documents connected to the investigation surrounding the $460,000 civil forfeiture. The FBI is also fighting to keep some records confidential and has asked the judge to review its reasons privately, citing concerns over investigative methods and the safety of individuals. The files are not automatically being released on August 28. The deadline is for those opposing disclosure to make their case before the judge decides what can be made public. All eyes are now on August 28.

🇳🇬 JUST IN Alex Barbir has accused President Bola Tinubu of being a convicted heroin trafficker. This comes as renewed attention focuses on Tinubu’s 1993 U.S. civil asset-forfeiture case, in which $460,000 in funds linked to accounts associated with a Chicago-based heroin trafficking investigation was forfeited. Tinubu was not criminally charged, indicted or convicted of heroin trafficking in the case. Barbir is calling for the release of additional U.S. records connected to the decades-old investigation.
