The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) has urged the United States authorities to release the findings of a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) report on alleged drug-trafficking records linked to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The party recently had its say via a press statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Yusuf Abubakar, and Nigerians have been reacting.
Urging the US authorities to release portions of the report while protecting witnesses and investigators, APM stated that efforts to keep the report from the public increase suspicion of guilt and desperation for a cover-up.
The party added that the FBI findings should not remain entirely hidden simply because some portions may be sensitive.
It read, “The APM notes that the US authorities can release aspects of the report that will not endanger lives, expose witnesses, investigators or techniques used in the investigation.
The APM urges the United States authorities to note that withholding such information is of enormous harm to Nigeria’s security, national integrity and Democratic growth.
The effect of the $460,000 forfeiture judgement is that by virtue of section 137 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended), President Tinubu remains ineligible for election in Nigeria.
Against the backdrop of the coming Presidential election, the APM urges the United States authorities to assist Nigerians in their decision to elect a leader with clean records and not an individual encumbered by drug-related allegations and corruption cases.”
