A United States-based advocacy firm, Von Batten-Montague-York, has alleged that President Bola Tinubu is overly determined to retain power.

Von Batten-Montague-York made the allegation in a statement shared on its verified X account on Thursday.

The statement comes as Nigeria moves towards the 2027 general elections.

The firm also accused the President of allegedly using the police, judiciary and electoral institutions as tools to manipulate the 2027 elections.

The advocacy group was reacting to reports that five men in Borno State were arrested after allegedly wearing ‘Tinubu Must Go’ T-shirts.

The firm further stressed what it described as the importance of the United States standing with Nigerians in their efforts to defend democracy and the rule of law.

“Nigerian President Bola Tinubu is desperate to remain in power for many self-beneficial reasons, including something called head-of-state immunity, a doctrine that can protect sitting heads of state from the jurisdiction of foreign courts while they remain in office.

“Tinubu is now fully aware that the only thing standing in the way of a possible official re-examination of his alleged role in the trafficking of heroin from Nigeria into the United States during the 1980s and 1990s, and a possible new criminal indictment, is his current status as President of Nigeria,” the firm tweeted.
