US Court Rejects Discovery Request Against Tinubu and DCI Group in FOIA Case

A US court has denied a request by Aaron Greenspan, an American entrepreneur, to obtain evidence from President Bola Tinubu and DCI Group, a consulting firm he has accused of cyberattacks on his website, in an ongoing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) case. According to multiple Nigerian and international news outlets, the decision was made by the US District Court for the District of Columbia on October 30, 2026. The court’s ruling has yet to reveal the reasons behind the rejection of the discovery request. The development comes amidst ongoing legal battles between Greenspan and Tinubu, who became Nigeria’s President earlier this year. Greenspan, known for his involvement in various tech ventures, had sought limited discovery from Tinubu and DCI Group, alleging that the firm was involved in cyberattacks against his website. The denial of the discovery request could be interpreted as a significant victory for Tinubu and DCI Group, but the exact implications remain unclear.
