President Bola Tinubu has filed a request with a United States federal court to block the release of unredacted records held by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Lawyers representing the President argued that the records are protected under US privacy laws and that their disclosure would not serve a legitimate public interest under freedom-of-information statutes. The legal team contends that Tinubu’s status as a sitting president does not waive his personal privacy rights regarding law-enforcement files. This move follows an ongoing transparency effort by US activist Aaron Greenspan, who is seeking access to files related to a 1993 civil forfeiture case involving funds linked to the President. The legal representatives dismissed claims of undisclosed investigations as speculative and urged the court to uphold standard privacy exemptions.
