Von Batten-Montague-York, a political consultancy and lobbying group with headquarters in the US, has c@ut!oned that the US cannot afford to let President Bola Tinubu rig Nigeria's future elections in 2027.
The company asserted that free and fair elections in Nigeria are crucial to US interests in the nation and the larger West African region in a post on its verified X account on Thursday.
Additionally, Von Batten-Montague-York claimed that concerns about corruption in Tinubu's Nigerian government are becoming more widespread across party divides.
The company additionally asserted that Tinubu selected a serving minister in charge of the national budget in spite of a purported prior involvement in money fr@ud from Nigeria's treasury. In its most recent post, it did not, however, offer any evidence to back up the claim.
“The US cannot afford to allow President Tinubu to r!g the upcoming Nigerian election,” the firm stated.
It emphasised that free and fair elections would be crucial to safeguarding US interests in Nigeria and the wider region, adding that what it called "l@wlessness" in Nigeria might set the nation on a path similar to that of Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso.
The business has made a number of public statements regarding Nigeria's 2027 election process, which coincided with the most recent announcement.
It claimed earlier this month that Tinubu was targeting opposition parties and candidates with state institutions, such as INEC, the courts, and law enforcement agencies, but it did not offer any proof in its article.
The views made by Von Batten-Montague-York, a private lobbying and policy advice business, should not be taken as official positions of the US government.
