Von Batten exposes a shocking $3m bribe offer allegedly linked to President Bola Tinubu, escalating the ongoing investigation straight to the FBI and US DOJ.
US lobby firm Von Batten-Montague-York has claimed its principal, Dr. Von Batten, rejected an unsolicited $3 million cash offer and a confidential London meeting to drop his firm’s advocacy campaign regarding President Bola Tinubu’s US legal records. The Washington-based group announced it is handing over full records of the exchange to the US Department of Justice and the FBI for a comprehensive review.
US policy advisory firm Von Batten-Montague-York has blown the lid off a explosive international scandal that is currently sending shockwaves through political quarters in Abuja and Washington. In a statement made public on its verified social media handle, the firm claimed that its founder, Dr. Von Batten, was recently approached with an unsolicited $3 million cash deal alongside an invitation to a secretive meeting in London. According to the firm, the mouth-watering offer originated from a highly placed figure closely linked to Nigerian President Bola Tinubu.

The goal behind the multi-million dollar payout was plain and simple: get the lobbying outfit to immediately drop its relentless advocacy push seeking the full release of President Tinubu’s historical US court records. But instead of taking the bait, Dr. Von Batten rejected the money on the spot, saved digital copies of all incoming communications, and refused to play ball.
Not stopping there, the lobbyist reached out to key figures in former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s political camp to verify the exact nature of the middleman’s relationship with Aso Rock. The firm noted that shortly after rejecting the offer, a fierce, coordinated smear campaign was launched against Dr. Von Batten to discredit his organization’s efforts.
To safeguard its standing and force a formal inquiry, Von Batten confirmed it is taking the evidence straight to top American federal law enforcement agencies. All correspondence outlining the $3 million payout and the private London meeting request are being submitted directly to the FBI and the US Department of Justice for immediate investigation.
Wrapping up its public declaration, the lobbying group fired a sharp, unyielding message straight to President Bola Tinubu, the ruling All Progressives Congress, and their associates: thank you for the offer, but no thanks.
With American federal investigators now being dragged directly into the picture, this latest twist guarantees that the legal drama surrounding these archives won’t be fading away anytime soon.
Do you think this $3 million claim will force Aso Rock to issue an official response, or will the presidency simply brush it off as opposition propaganda?

Meanwhile; FBI Tinubu records case takes a shocking new turn as the agency warns a US court that disclosure could endanger lives and expose its methods. Full details here.
The FBI has asked a US court for permission to explain privately, away from the public eye, why it is holding back investigative files tied to old drug trafficking allegations against President Bola Tinubu — warning that full disclosure could put lives at risk and expose law enforcement techniques.
The filing, dated August 20, landed before the US district court in Columbia in a long-running case brought by American transparency advocate Aaron Greenspan.
The FBI Wants to Explain Itself Behind Closed Doors
The FBI is not willing to put all its cards on the table in public, and it has said as much to a US court.
The agency filed a motion asking to submit what is called an ex parte in camera declaration. Strip away the legal language and it simply means a written statement handed straight to the judge — no copy for the other side, nothing for the public to see. Continue reading here
