US court drama, this one comes with FBI and DEA files in the headline. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s records are reportedly at the centre of a fresh legal battle over whether they should be released publicly because apparently, even old paperwork can trend like fresh gist.
The records reportedly relate to investigations and allegations dating back to the 1990s. The key issue now is whether a US court will allow the documents to be made public, so expect plenty of legal terminology, hot takes and people suddenly becoming freedom-of-information experts overnight.
For now, this is a fight over access to records, not a court finding on the underlying allegations.
