Alleged Drug Trafficking: ‘No Cover-Up For Tinubu’ – US Firm Von Batten-Montague by Ezeama400(op): 12:38pm On Aug 19

A United States-based policy advisory and lobbying firm, Von Batten-Montague-York has vowed that there will be no cover-up over the alleged drug trafficking allegations involving Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu.

Von Batten-Montague-York made the vow in a statement posted on X on Tuesday.

The firm said that President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice, DOJ, fought the release of Freedom of Information Act, FOIA, records concerning drug-trafficking allegations involving Tinubu.

It, however, stressed that the DOJ under President Donald Trump would never protect an alleged drug trafficker linked to the smuggling of heroin from Nigeria through Illinois to Indiana.

According to the firm, instead of protecting Americans, the Biden DOJ chose to go after President Trump, adding that, if not for the grace of God, it might have succeeded in destroying him.

It said the DOJ went after President Trump while fighting the release of records concerning Tinubu, a man accused in federal records of involvement in heroin trafficking.

The firm appreciated President Trump, US Attorney Jeanine Pirro, everyone in the Trump administration, as well as members of Congress who “refused to follow the footsteps of Biden’s DOJ,” which it accused of shielding an alleged drug trafficker.

“Unlike President Joe Biden’s DOJ, which fought the release of FOIA records concerning drug-trafficking allegations involving Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, the DOJ under President Donald Trump will never protect an alleged drug trafficker linked to the smuggling of heroin from Nigeria through Illinois to Indiana,” Von Batten-Montague-York tweeted.

DAILY POST recalls that United States District Judge Beryl Howell, on Tuesday, gave Donald Trump-appointed attorney Jeanine Pirro four additional days to release the drug-trafficking records of Tinubu.

Tinubu has spent millions of our tax payers money to cover his case, unfortunately it’s too late..

Tinubu is a disgrace to humanity. No wonder he went into coma when Trump won election..

This is disgusting and disgraceful because the action of this man will cause more damage to the image of Nigeria and Nigerians especially those in diaspora..

This is not a good time to be proud of this country..

Hmmmm. But come to think of it, "Bobo Chicago" is hardly a befitting nickname for a self-proclaimed Mobil Accountant.

Have you travelled outside the country before?
With the way you are reasoning I doubt..

I am not against you supporting Tinubu, but make sure you are supporting him with your senses pls.,

are u ok?

Which damage can be more than what is happening to our image by those people in Ghana, Kenya, south Africa, India Cambodia Bangladesh Thailand n co.

Have u heard how that Thai police described Nigerians as a whole n some people in Nigeria?

Many people don't even know the name of the president of Nigeria but they know of the American prince from Nigeria n those people who believe in making money at all cost.

Dey play.

If they like they should release a video where Tinubu was using cocaine, it won't stop us from voting him n he will win so u can wail all u want

The machinery and agenda to deal with the Aso Villa Bandit commander is in motion cheesy

.

Recent legal actions involve a U.S. court ordering the DEA and FBI to release older investigative records regarding Nigerian President Bola Tinubu from a 1990s case.

DEA will declare Tinubu wanted tongue

Ikemefuna Okeke from Nnewi packaging himself as Von Batten-Montague. I have never seen anyone with such low self-esteem.

We are waiting to see the outcome of the $1.2 million Atiku paid him for the dirty job. That guy has every mark of a scammer. From putting up a picture of himself and Trump on his X page, to tagging Trump every time he makes a post, to disabling comments under his posts so as to prevent people from calling him out.

Another useless, attention-seeking clown.
This is how Atiku plans to win the next election? grin

This is how they will use all their time chasing ghosts; then, when they lose, they will come here to rant about rigging.

Alleged drug trafficker who was never charged or prosecuted for any drug crime. The US system doesn't work that way.

These lowlifers are taking these shallow Nigerians for a ride.

If Tinubu had a really serious drug case, you would not need a judge to release any record.
His conviction record will be there for anyone to see, just like Trump's 34 felony convictions.

Some people had been disqualified in the past because of such reports.
If Nigerians are very enlightened, objective, morally sound and politically savvy, such a person should never win an election.
Such a person can never win an election in a place like Ghana, for instance.
