Tinubu's Lawyers Request Amendment in U.S. Court Case
President Bola Tinubu's legal team has filed a motion with the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, seeking permission to amend a previous court filing after admitting to errors.
The case, Greenspan v. Executive Office for U.S.
Attorneys et al., involves American activist Aaron Greenspan's efforts to obtain records concerning Tinubu. The motion, filed on October 1, 2026, acknowledges mistakes in Part 1.c of the earlier filing, specifically regarding references to 1993 and Tinubu's public office.
The legal team clarified that the errors were unintentional and occurred during the drafting process. They emphasized that the main argument in the filing remains unchanged and that Tinubu's privacy interests in historical records are still valid.
The legal team consulted with Greenspan's lawyers, who indicated no opposition to the proposed corrections. The team requested the judge to allow the amended response to replace the earlier filing identified as Document 98.
