- APC Chieftain Joe Igbokwe has ruled out the chances of Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu, becoming Lagos governor through the 2027 general elections
- The Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL) had earlier endorsed the young Tinubu to be the next governor of Lagos, stating that his potential qualifies him for the position
- But the APC chieftain criticised the endorsement, statement that the campaign for Seyi Tinubu was to distract President Bola Tinubu
Joe Igbokwe, a prominent member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has expressed strong reservations about Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu, being considered for the governorship of Lagos State in 2027.
Igbokwe’s concerns came after the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL) endorsed Seyi for the position. In a Facebook post, Igbokwe criticized the groups supporting Seyi, describing the situation as a distraction and an attempt to undermine President Tinubu.
