The storm might not be over for President Bola Tinubu as the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation—FBI, has disclosed that by October it will start releasing over 2,500 documents relating to him in its database.
This is coming after Nigerian investigative journalist, David Hundeyin, sued 5 US government agencies in conjunction with Aaron Greenspan of Plainsite, for their refusal to honour FOIA requests regarding the contents of the files they maintain on Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
According to court fillings obtained by NewsBand Newspaper, FBI has agreed to release 2,500 pages of documents on Tinubu in October.
“FBI has identified a total of approximately 2500 pages potentially responsive to FOIA requests 1553430-00 and 1587544-000,” the U.S. body said in a status report docketed on September 11 at the United States District Court for the District of Columbia in Washington, D.C. “FBI plans a processing schedule of 500 pages per month, with an initial release anticipated by the end of October 2023.”
The release of the 2,500 documents is expected to put to an end disturbing questions about when Mr Tinubu entered the U.S., under which name he entered and all activities he has been involved in ever since.
