Drug case: FBI, DEA request more time to produce Tinubu’s records

Two United States agencies, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), are seeking a three-month extension from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia to release documents relating to President Bola Tinubu’s drug trafficking allegations.

Tinubu was indicted in a US federal investigation in the early 1990s over heroin trafficking and money laundering activities in Chicago and became the subject of this investigation in January 1992. 

In 2022, the founder of the legal transparency platform PlainSite, Aaron Greenspan, initiated a series of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests concerning US federal investigations into a Chicago-based drug ring.
