Aaron Greenspan, owner of PlainSite, a website that advocates data transparency to combat corruption in public service, has labelled President Bola Tinubu an “alleged criminal” using delay tactics to pause the release of his records by U.S. security agencies including the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
“Bola Ahmed Tinubu is an alleged criminal trying to buy time in a desperate attempt to cling to power in Nigeria, which the FOIA materials in this action directly threaten,” Mr Greenspan told the U.S. Court for the Northern District of Columbia in Washington D.C. on Monday.
Mr Greenspan, on Monday, told a U.S. Court that the Nigerian president’s last-ditch effort to intervene in the five-month-old lawsuit was merely an attempt to buy time and stop his rivals from using the records against him at Nigeria’s Supreme Court where his election victory is being hotly contested.
