Ayodele Olawande Supports Seyi Tinubu as Next Lagos State Governor in 2027
The Minister for Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, has shown support for Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, as a potential candidate for the governorship of Lagos State in 2027.
Speaking on the Mic On podcast hosted by Seun Okinbaloye, Olawande described Seyi as a capable and dedicated individual with a history of supporting youth initiatives, even before his father assumed the presidency.
“Seyi is not too young to become a governor,” Olawande stated, adding that Seyi himself was not behind the campaign pushing for his candidacy.
The minister emphasized Seyi’s qualifications and commitment, which have drawn the attention of various groups.
Organizations like the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL) have already thrown their weight behind Seyi, endorsing him as a strong contender for the position. Supporters argue that his leadership skills and influence could bring positive changes to Lagos State.
