President Bola Tinubu lawyer for America, Wole Afolabi, don tok say if US authorities get strong evidence say Tinubu dey involve for drug trafficking, dem for don arrest or charge am since.
Afolabi make dis explanation for one TV interview as controversy continue over documents wey FBI, DEA and US Department of Justice get concerning old investigations linked to Tinubu. One person, Aaron Greenspan, don go court for America to ask government make dem release more of di documents.
According to di lawyer, US authorities don already release thousands of pages, but some parts still get redactions because of things like confidential sources, investigation methods and protection of people wey dey involved for law enforcement work. He say Tinubu legal team dey use di rights wey US law give dem to challenge release of some information.
Di lawyer also talk say people no suppose take di old $460,000 forfeiture matter for di 1990s as automatic proof of criminal conviction. He argue say forfeiting money for civil case no be di same thing as person being criminally indicted or convicted for drug trafficking.
Afolabi add say Tinubu don travel enter and comot America many times without US authorities arresting or prosecuting am for drug trafficking. He therefore question why person wey US get enough evidence against am go still dey enter and comot di country freely.
But make e clear: di fact say US never arrest Tinubu no by itself prove say every allegation against am na false. Di ongoing court matter na mainly about access and release of government records, and one US court ruling on di records no establish say Tinubu commit drug trafficking offence or say e be criminal conviction.
Afolabi also refuse to reveal any private explanation Tinubu may have given am, saying lawyer client confidentiality no allow am disclose confidential information.
