US Firm Rejects $3M to Halt Tinubu Drug Investigation
Von Batten-Montague-York, a US-based policy advisory and lobbying firm, alleged that it was offered $3 million to halt its campaign regarding President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's alleged heroin trafficking. The claim was made on Wednesday via a statement on its verified X account.
The offer was reportedly made to Dr. Von Batten by an unnamed individual with connections to President Tinubu, accompanied by an invitation for a confidential meeting in London. Dr. Von Batten rejected the offer and retained all communications related to it.
Following the rejection, the firm alleged that a smear campaign against Dr. Von Batten commenced. The firm intends to submit the alleged proposal and communications to the United States Department of Justice and the FBI for further investigation.
The firm has been involved in efforts to obtain US law enforcement records related to Tinubu, with ongoing legal proceedings in the US District Court for the District of Columbia regarding these documents.
