The Minister for Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, has declared that Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu is ready to become Lagos Governor in 2027.
According to him, Seyi is well-qualified to govern Lagos State.
In a recent appearance on the Mic On podcast, Olawande addressed the growing rumours surrounding Seyi’s potential run for governor in 2027, affirming that he is more than capable.
“He’s not too young to become a governor,” the minister stated.
According to him, Seyi is a well-trained and committed individual with a proven track record of helping young people long before his father became president.
While rumours about Seyi’s candidacy began circulating in 2024, particularly after the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL) and other groups endorsed him for the governorship, Olawande clarified that Seyi is not directly involved in the campaign.
“Seyi is not the one engineering the campaign to become the next governor of Lagos State,” he added
