Bwala: Seyi Tinubu Qualified To Contest Lagos Governorship

The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, has said that the president’s son, Seyi Tinubu, is constitutionally qualified to contest for any political office in Nigeria, including the governorship of Lagos State.

Speaking on The Clarity Zone podcast posted on YouTube on Wednesday, Bwala dismissed criticisms suggesting Seyi’s political relevance is tied solely to his father’s influence. He described him instead as a bridge-builder among Nigerian youth.

“If Seyi Tinubu’s father is the president, what stops him from running for Lagos State governor? Seyi Tinubu can even challenge his father in the next election,” Bwala said.

He praised Seyi’s character, describing him as humble and unassuming despite his privileged background as the son of a former Lagos governor and now president of Nigeria.

According to him, Seyi has cultivated long-standing friendships, supported young people in securing government opportunities, and even attracted criticism for bringing in individuals across party lines, including Obidients.

Bwala further noted that Seyi has maintained maturity by avoiding scandals or social media attacks, even though his father is one of the most heavily criticised Nigerian leaders in recent memory.

The presidential aide also revealed that his own criticisms of the Tinubu administration have never affected his relationship with Seyi, describing him as someone capable of separating politics from personal relationships.

He urged Nigerians to judge Seyi Tinubu based on personal experience rather than inherited opinions.

“Until you experience somebody, don’t have an opinion of them. Too many people inherit other people’s problems without any personal encounter,” Bwala added.

Obidients are the reason Peter Obi will never be Nigeria president.

Obi Opens Up as Alleged Photos of His Son with Gay Partner Go Viral.

Former presidential candidate Peter Obi has dismissed trending photos circulating online that allegedly depict his son, Oseloka Obi, with a gay partner.

The images, which trended on social media, depicted a man celebrating with another man believed to be his partner on the partner’s birthday.

A northern influencer on X, with the handle @Waspapping_, shared the photos with the caption:

“Peter Obi’s son and his partner are out there enjoying life, but Obidients will turn a blind eye. Well, congratulations to the soon-to-be couple.”

The post and many others have gained traction on social media.

Reacting to the controversy, Obi’s media aide, Valentine Obienyem, in a statement debunked the claims, stressing that the photos do not feature Obi’s son.

The statement, titled “Fake Picture, False Claim: Obi’s Integrity Remains Untouched,” read:

“The picture currently being circulated is not that of Mr. Peter Obi’s son. Having searched every corner of his life and found nothing incriminating, mischief-makers resorted to posting this false image, claiming it to be his son. Let it be clear: this is not his son. They should look elsewhere for the scandal they have fruitlessly hunted for years.”

News Brief: APC Will Continue Defeating Opposition, Obidients with Digital Strategy — Tinubu’s Aide.

Olusegun Dada, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on New Media, has asserted that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will continue to defeat opposition groups, including members of the Obidient movement, through strategic digital media campaigns.

Speaking on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief on Monday, Dada credited the APC’s success in the 2023 presidential election to its focused digital strategy. “We elected a president that people said was unelectable,” he said. “We have beaten them [Obidients] three times, and we will continue to beat them.”

He claimed that opposition supporters often avoid criticism and target those who challenge them, while the APC listens to feedback to inform governance. “Our strategy has been to clarify, not be distracted by noise,” Dada said, adding that he has participated in over 40 governorship races across Nigeria, most of which APC won.

Dada dismissed the opposition’s tactics as aggressive and repetitive, insisting the ruling party remains focused on promoting its candidates and policies through data-backed narratives and digital communication.
