He Worked for Trump. Now He Works for Tinubu.
A recent FARA filing reveals that one of Trump's own former White House advisors is on Nigeria's payroll — working to undercut Trump's own policy.
Trump designated Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern on October 31, 2025. His administration is on record naming ISIS as a threat to Christians. He ordered airstrikes against ISWAP targets in Sokoto State on Christmas Day. His people sent 200 troops to Nigeria for counterterrorism training.
Now meet Matt Mowers.
Mowers was Trump's Senior White House Advisor at the State Department — arrived Day One, January 20, 2017. Worked under Rex Tillerson and Mike Pompeo. His own bio says he handled North Korea, immigration reform, and the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS. He ran Trump's 2016 campaign field operation. He was on the transition team. He ran for Congress twice on his Trump credentials, with endorsements from Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise.
And on December 30, 2025 — sixty days after Trump signed the CPC designation — Mowers' firm Valcour, LLC registered as a foreign agent for Nigeria.
The fee: $120,000 a month.
Read the Filing.
This is not a rumor. It is a public record filed with the U.S. Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, Registration #7373, received January 9, 2026.
The foreign principal is Maton Engineering Nigeria Limited, owned and managed by Matthew Tonlagha — Vice Chairman of Tantita Security Services. Tantita is the Niger Delta pipeline surveillance company run by Government Ekpemupolo, the former militant known as "Tompolo," who received a multi-billion-naira government surveillance contract from Tinubu's administration. This is not some independent oil and gas contractor. This is money moving through the Tinubu ecosystem.
Mowers received $360,000 on December 30 — the initial quarterly retainer. He then disbursed $105,000 to Bridgeway Advocacy and $60,000 to Mount Olives LLC, both listed as subcontractors. Two layers of hands. $165,000 in subcontractor payments in the first two weeks. Those names need to be run down.
The stated mission on the federal form: strategic communications and government affairs — with U.S. media, the U.S. Congress, and the Executive Branch — "for the purpose of strengthening the bilateral relationship between the U.S. and Nigeria."
Translation: lobby the people who designated Nigeria a CPC country and get them to back off.
That Makes Four.
Valcour is not the only operation running. Tinubu's lobbying machine now has four confirmed FARA registrations working simultaneously:
- DCI Group AZ — $9,000,000 over six months, directed by Nigeria's National Security Advisor, tasked with telling Congress that Christians are being protected.
- BGR Government Affairs — $150,000 a month through a Nigerian corporate pass-through, engaging Congress and the White House on U.S.-Nigerian relations.
- Adomi Advisory Group — hired by Nigeria's Ministry of Finance to ghostwrite letters submitted directly to the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee — the very committee holding our briefing.
- And now Valcour — $720,000 for six months, run by Trump's own former White House man, with two layers of subcontractors doing the quiet work on Capitol Hill.
Total known spend: more than $10,000,000. And the contract terms run through June 2026 — right through the congressional briefing season, right through the next USCIRF reporting cycle.
This Is the Point.
Tinubu didn't just hire lobbyists. He hired Trump's own people.
Mowers built his political identity on Trump's coattails. He ran for Congress twice talking about fighting for freedom and conservative values. He worked religious freedom issues at the State Department — his own bio says so. He knows what ISIS does to Christians. He knows what Boko Haram did to northern Nigeria. He knows exactly what the CPC designation means and why it was issued.
He took the money anyway.
Seven hundred and twenty thousand dollars to run interference against the policy of the man who gave him his career. That is not consulting. That is a choice.
The people dying in Plateau State, Borno State, Zamfara State — they don't have $10,000,000 to spend in Washington. They have testimony. They have scars. They have the truth.
On March 25, some of them will be in a room on Capitol Hill telling it.
Tinubu's machine will be in the hallways.
Follow the Money.
FARA filings are public. Look them up. Registration #7373 is Valcour/Mowers. Registration #6278 is DCI Group. Registration #5430 is BGR. Registration #7683 is Adomi Advisory.
Every dollar is documented. Every firm is named. The only question left is which members of Congress are taking their meetings.
Share this. Call your congressman. Ask them if they've heard from any of these firms. Ask them what was said.
Then ask yourself who told the truth.
Rise.
