US lobbying firm takes Tinubu drug-trafficking allegations to Congress

The United States-based political advisory and lobbying firm, Von Batten-Montague-York, has threatened Nigeria's President Bola Tinubu over drug trafficking allegations linked to him. During the Republican National Midterm Convention, the firm's founder, Dr Von Batten, briefed members of Congress and senior state government officials about FBI and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) allegations that Tinubu was part of a criminal organization that smuggled heroin from Nigeria into the United States during the 1980s and 1990s.

The firm stated that Tinubu allegedly laundered the drug proceeds through multiple banks, including those in Virginia. Von Batten-Montague-York warned that they are "coming for you," emphasizing that those who harm Americans cannot outrun American justice.
