Lagos: If Seyi Tinubu decides to run, I’ll campaign for him – VeryDarkMan

Social media analyst Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan has said he’s willing to campaign for Seyi Tinubu if he decides to contest the governorship race in Lagos.

Recall that Seyi Tinubu who is the son of Nigeria’s President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu was endorsed by the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders in Owerri, Imo State, suggesting that Seyi would be welcomed to run for governor in Osun or Imo states, where his family is reportedly from.

Otse, also referred to as VDM advocates for the active participation of Nigerian youths in politics, cautioned that while he typically distances himself from the political sphere, he would defy this stance for Seyi.

“If Seyi Tinubu decides to run for governorship, I’ll campaign for him. Though I don’t involve myself in politics, I’ll do it because of him,” VDM said in a video shared via his Instagram page.

“Based on my calculation, Seyi Tinubu is a bridge to achieving something I believe will make Nigeria work,” he added.

“I’ve been studying Seyi Tinubu’s pattern; he seems to have his father’s political mentality,” VDM said.

VDM further stated that: “The problem is these older men know that if Seyi Tinubu becomes governor, they’ll be kicked out of power. They’ve seen the traits of his father in him, so it’ll be a problem,”

“So, if he decides, which I believe won’t work, especially when his father is in office, it might be hard for him to become governor.”

In November 2024, the Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party declared that citizens would resist any attempts to impose Seyi as the next governor of the state.
