Seyi Tinubu
Youth group insists on Seyi Tinubu as next Lagos governor
The Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL) has strongly backed the potential candidacy of Seyi Tinubu for the Lagos State governorship in 2027, likening his succession to leadership transitions seen in religious institutions.
In a statement issued on Sunday in Owerri, CONYL President General, Comrade Goodluck Ibem, defended the calls for Seyi Tinubu to run, asserting that he is constitutionally entitled to contest for public office.
He stated that family ties to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should not hinder Seyi’s ambitions.
“Pastors and General Overseers of churches hand over their ministries to their sons upon retirement. Why should a young, capable leader like Seyi Tinubu be denied the opportunity to serve Lagos State simply because of his father’s legacy?” Ibem questioned.
