A United States-based political advisory and lobbying firm, Von Batten-Montague-York, has released fresh documents in the federal case concerning Nigerian President Bola Tinubu.

The firm disclosed this in a statement posted on its verified X account.

According to the firm, a newly filed court document cited criminal proceedings and public reports concerning allegations that DCI Group, which it described as representatives of Tinubu’s administration in Washington, D.C., was connected to an alleged hacking operation targeting American activists.

The alleged operation reportedly involved stolen information used to discredit critics.

Von Batten-Montague-York said the disclosures warranted closer examination in light of its separate federal lawsuit against Tinubu, Nigeria’s ambassador to South Africa, Fani-Kayode, and DCI Group.

The firm alleged in the lawsuit that it had been subjected to a campaign of defamatory attacks, followed by statements it interpreted as threats of kidnapping, physical harm, referral to Nigerian security agencies and extradition.

In its statement, the firm said: “A new court document filed yesterday in the federal case concerning Nigerian President Bola Tinubu cites criminal proceedings and public reports concerning allegations that Tinubu’s administration’s D.C. representatives (DCI Group) was connected to an alleged hacking operation targeting American activists and involving stolen information used to discredit critics.

“We believe these circumstances raise serious questions about American sovereignty, foreign interference, and potential transnational repression.

“The abduction and murder of Jamal Khashoggi shows how far a foreign government may go to silence critics. We are taking nothing for granted. Stand by for our next course of action,” the firm tweeted.
