  "summary": "President Bola Tinubu has taken a US court to block the release of drug investigation records, including those held by the Department of Justice, FBI, and DEA. American transparency activist Aaron Greenspan is seeking these records under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), with a focus on Tinubu's alleged involvement in drug trafficking. Tinubu's legal team argues that releasing the records could violate the president's privacy rights and that some information has already been made public, thus not removing his right to privacy over the remaining undisclosed details.",
