BREAKING: Hundeyin Lambasts American Justice System As Obviously Compromised, Corrupt
World famous Nigerian investigative journalist, David Hundeyin has decried the American justice system for shielding convicted criminals while hounding successful business people.
In an apparent reaction to the US Justice Department’s statement on Air Peace, accusing the airline’s chief executive officer, Allen Onyema of obstructing justice, Hundeyin wondered why the same Justice System failed to resolve the characters involved in Nigeria’s 2023 election.
He also observed that a card-carrying Democrat, Beryl Howell, appointed a judge by a President elected on the ticket of the party, Barack Obama was tweaking justice to favour current presidential candidate, Kamala Harris.

Hundeyin took to his verified handle on micro-blogging site, X, on Monday to assert that the difference is the character involved in the Nigerian election has become an ally of the American Government.
He wrote, “I really couldn’t give a fuck what @TheJusticeDept has to say about some random case against a private businessman in Nigeria, because its handling of the far more significant case involving Nigeria’s sitting president tells me everything I need to know about the US Justice system.
“A known drug trafficker who was indicted in Chicago and subsequently converted into a US state asset now sits as “president” of 210 million Nigerians, having been supported every step of the way by his American handlers. An FOIA disclosure lawsuit was filed last year against the DoJ and 5 other US state defendants.
“Despite partial success in getting these disclosures, a lot of the documents were redacted and a motion was filed to remove these redactions so that the world will see the full and incontestible criminal records of the American puppet occupying Aso Rock. The judge overseeing the case is Beryl Howell, a lifelong, card-carrying Democrat, Obama appointee and grand jury supervisor of the Mueller-Russia bullshit sandwich.
“Knowing fully well that removing or maintaining the redactions in her final judgment could both have negative effects on Kamala Harris’ election chances, she fixed the date for the final judgment on November 11 – exactly a week after the US election, at which point it wouldn’t matter, as far as getting Harris into the White House is concerned.
“There was a time I once looked up to the US Justice system as an efficient, process-driven, airtight system. Now with my own involvement in this case and my experience with the clearly and obviously compromised and corrupt judge handling it (one of her preliminary rulings was that Tinubu, despite being PRESIDENT OF A WHOLE COUNTRY, is entitled to “privacy exceptions” to protect his criminal records from public scrutiny), I know better.
“This woman is no better than Kekere-Ekun or Kayode Ariwoola, and that goes for the rest of the American “Justice system.” It’s not that I think Allen Onyema is innocent, but it’s that I simply don’t care anymore.
“I have seen what America really is – Nigeria with snow and nuclear weapons. It is a useless, corrupt and indefensible country ruled by world class liars and propagandists.
“Once again, I’m rooting for China, Russia, India and Africa.”
