President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information
and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has mocked presidential candidates of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar and the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi.
Onanuga said Atiku and Obi lost in their attempt to force a
United States, US, court to compel the release of some information about
Tinubu.
Referring to Atiku and Obi, Onanuga said the conspirators
have failed again.
Posting on X, Onanuga wrote: “Aaron Greenspan, the American
agent and contractor of Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi and David Hundeyin loses bid
to stampede the Washington D.C court to order the release of President Tinubu’s
FBI record. The conspirators have failed once again.”
The US District Court of Columbia had declined a request to
force the Central Intelligence Agency, CIA; Federal Bureau of Investigation,
FBI; and Internal Revenue Service, IRS, to release information on Tinubu.
One Aaron Greenspan had filed the emergency motion seeking
to compel the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys (“EOUSA”), the Department of
State, FBI, Internal Revenue Service, Drug Enforcement Administration, and the
CIA to immediately release the documents following the Nigerian Supreme Court’s
hearing of Atiku and Obi’s appeals.
He pleaded for a quick release of the documents because they
needed to be presented at the Supreme Court.
Greenspan told the court that the Supreme Court deliberately
moved the hearing of the appeals by Atiku and Obi to October 23 to render his
suit before the US court nugatory.
He had asked that the documents on Tinubu be released to him
latest October 31.
Ruling on the appeal, Judge Beryl A. Howell declined
Greenspan’s request on the grounds that he failed to satisfy the relevant
conditions for the grant of such a prayer contained in a motion for emergency
hearing, which he filed on Monday.
