BREAKING: FBI, DEA Confirm Ongoing Search for Investigative Records on President Tinubu, Joint Report Expected by July 31
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) have confirmed that their searches for investigative records relating to Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are still ongoing.
In a joint statement issued yesterday, the agencies disclosed that the document search and review process is complex and remains underway. They further revealed that they anticipate completing the process within the next 90 days and expect to submit a consolidated report on or before July 31, 2025.
The development follows a series of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests filed by various parties seeking clarity and access to past investigative records involving President Tinubu during his time in the United States.
Although the agencies have not disclosed the specific nature of the documents or the scope of the ongoing searches, the announcement has sparked significant attention in both Nigerian and international political circles.
Legal experts and political analysts are closely monitoring the situation as it may have potential implications on President Tinubu’s image and his administration’s international engagements.
The Nigerian government has not yet officially responded to the latest update from the FBI and DEA. However, sources within the presidency suggest that the administration remains confident and views the process as part of standard international procedures.
This is a developing story, and TheNigerian will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
