Femi Fani-Kayode Challenges Karl Von Batten's Claims

Politics

Femi Fani-Kayode challenges Karl Von Batten regarding accusations that President Tinubu was involved in drug smuggling in America. Fani-Kayode asserts that Von Batten's claims are false and demands proof of any indictment or conviction against Tinubu.

He references a 2003 letter from Michael H Bonner of the American Consulate in Nigeria to Inspector General of Police Tafa Balogun, which indicated that an FBI NCIC check on Tinubu showed no criminal arrest records. Fani-Kayode argues that circulating a civil forfeiture from 1993 does not equate to a criminal verdict and accuses Von Batten of being a "Mr Nobody" who misrepresents himself.

He also discusses Von Batten's name changes and questions the legitimacy of his claims regarding his background and education, suggesting that these changes are attempts to obscure a past indictment by an American court in 2003.
