Joe Igbokwe, a prominent member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has declared that Seyi, the son of President Bola Tinubu, lacks the qualifications to serve as governor of Lagos State.
On Tuesday, the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL), a collective of youth organizations from across the six geopolitical zones, endorsed Seyi for the governorship of Lagos in 2027.
However, in a Facebook post on Wednesday, Igbokwe rebuked these groups for their backing of the president’s son.
The APC leader described the situation as a distraction and an effort aimed at undermining Tinubu.
He further noted that to govern a state like Lagos is not a job for “boys.”
“Who are these faceless people pushing Seyi Tinubu for Lagos Governor? This is a needless distraction.
“To pull PBAT down is their target. Please allow PBAT to do his very engaging and tasking job. Ruling Lagos is not the job of boys?,” he wrote.
