You've been saying same bullshit since 2023. Keep donating to Hundeyin, he needs money for bride price.

loads of criminal judges for hire in USA right now. why would a judge have a say in wether they chose to release it or not?

🥱 Stale. Got anything else to say?

Children of Hate will not like this

PressMyButton:
This is from a website that's Anti -Government and Anti- Tinubu, and a more authentic report because it quoted the Judge's statements unlike the other Fake News wailers are wanking over. No wonder, I checked a few X accounts of some chief wailers and everything was dry. Even David Hundeyin who should have been the first to push it was nowhere to be found. So, what exactly are headless mob on Nairaland celebrating?. It just shows you guys are far behind and only waiting for a poop to be dropped in your mouths before typing on your phone. So, let's grab our popcorn and watch how wailers will change what they were saying on the other Fake thread two minutes ago.



After God na Tinubu 💪 God bless Nigeria

Una be mumu o, do you know what non-exempt records are?. They tax returns na, who declared someone else's tax returns publicly without his/her consent?. No be why dey no gree release Trump's tax records because he didn't give consent. US has privacy laws, you dare not release some personal info just like that.

Mumu, non exempt records can be defined as any records deemed not fit for public consumption, it can be key witnesses, addresses, PII and so on, I audit for a living in the USA so slow your roll!

OkCornel:
Then why is the judge saying this if those redacted areas will remain redacted? Can’t you think?

Again that statement has nothing to do with the redacted part......The judge urged them to release any record that they might still be witholding but that does not mean PII and other sensitive information is suddenly okay for the public.......Don't use your brain to cross highway

The question is why will he even be fingered in the first place, that's to show that he ain't pure.

Now the question is who is pure?

Zombidients go cry tire

Salewa97:
This is a huge win for President Tinubu.

The narrative is gradually shifting and the haters are left with nothing but stale stories.

why was this case brought up again?. I thought it was already dealth with during the election period
This is not a win Tinubu. It's a big shame.
Imagine a win over a drug case in which forefiture was involved and admitted by BAT.
It's a big shame and public disgrace for anyone to claim "win".

Always comparing negativities!

So you know it's a privileged info about an individual but you dey yarn gutter, maybe you weren't taught in audit class in Abakaliki.

They just want money from Nigeria to fight China.

After God na Tinubu 💪 God bless Nigeria

“Given that plaintiff has failed to show that the CIA has ever officially acknowledged the existence or nonexistence of records responsive to his FOIA request, the CIA’s Glomar response must be sustained,” Ms Howell said in her April 8, 2025, decision.
What is the glomar response?

This is the writeup as explained by gpt:

Alright, let me break this down clearly.

This is about a U.S. court case involving requests for information (under the Freedom of Information Act — FOIA) about Nigerian President Bola Tinubu.

An American activist (Aaron Greenspan) and a Nigerian journalist (David Hundeyin) had filed lawsuits in U.S. courts, asking intelligence and law enforcement agencies (CIA, FBI, DEA) to release files about Tinubu, especially concerning allegations of past involvement in drug-related activities in the 1990s (this had been a big issue during the 2023 Nigerian elections).

Here's what the judge ruled:

1. CIA is excused:

The judge, Beryl Howell, ruled that the CIA can refuse to say whether it has any information at all about Tinubu.

This is called a Glomar response — basically, the CIA is legally allowed to say "We can neither confirm nor deny whether we have any files."

Why? Because the plaintiffs could not prove that the CIA had ever officially admitted to having or not having such records.

So, the CIA is now out of the case. No more obligations to search or release files on Tinubu.



2. FBI and DEA must check again:

The FBI and DEA have already released some documents in earlier stages of this case.

These documents showed Tinubu was investigated in the 1990s for ties to drug trafficking, and they also confirmed the well-known fact of his $460,000 forfeiture in 1993.

However, the judge said these agencies should double-check their archives to see if there's anything left that could be relevant and in the public interest.

So, they are not completely off the hook yet.



3. Next steps:

The FBI and DEA were ordered to update the court by May 2, 2025, with the status of their further searches.

It remains unclear if they will find or release anything new.



4. Impact:

For Tinubu, this is partly a relief: the CIA won’t be releasing anything (or at least, won't even admit if they have anything).

But it’s not entirely over, since the FBI and DEA are still expected to look further.




Summary in one line:

The U.S. court allowed the CIA to stay silent on Tinubu’s records (using the Glomar response), while the FBI and DEA have been told to do a final search and release any remaining non-exempt documents.

Ode, go and learn about PII, SPII and other classifications of data, don't have time to go back and forth with a nonentity!

And if you don't come back, may thunder fire your left ball!

You’re vibrating. Don’t go hiding when the unredacted files are released.

You’re on my watchlist. You’ve messed with the wrong moniker

Only a CIA asset will make the US judiciary go back and forth on a simple matter. Exposing Tinubu for being a CIA asset will mean blowing his cover and cutting off the leverage the US has Tinubu. Corruption was birthed in the Western world.

PressMyButton:
But same you with your other moniker admitted that the Moderators brought back the thread which was initially deleted after verifying. Why are you now trying to being a snake and double faced?. After opening thread to appreciate them, you again turn around to still accuse them. Anyways, a loser will always be a loser and a failure will always be a failure.

If Gazette which is anti-Government can confirm that the such a thing was not ordered by the US Court, then why are you drinking insecticide on the issue?

Bone of contention is that you tinubuians have flawed the Gazette for not be authentic, why using same media outlet to validate your information?

Thiefobi1:

Is it the narrative you zomBs want to push, so you agree he has a drug past?
That is what we want the whole world to know and Elrufai need it most to convince his people that their president is a drug baron except you want to tell us that prophet mohammed was a drug pusher and heroin addict too.
