Seyi Law Says Only Tinubu Can Fix Nigeria and Vows Never to Support Peter Obi
Nigerian comedian Oluwaseyitan Aletile, better known as Seyi Law, believes President Bola Tinubu is the only leader capable of fixing the country. Speaking during an interview on the Teju Babyface podcast, he said if Tinubu fails to set Nigeria on the right path, no other politician currently in the scene can do it.
Seyi Law, who supported Tinubu during the 2023 elections, said despite the current economic struggles and rising insecurity, he still sees the former Lagos governor as the most capable hand for the job. He argued that neither Atiku Abubakar nor Peter Obi would have done better, based on what he knows about their track records.
He admitted that his public support for Tinubu has cost him fans and show attendance, but he remains unbothered. For him, it’s about the long-term results. He hopes that someday his children will benefit from the changes Tinubu is trying to bring.
“Some people dislike me now because I supported Tinubu. They don’t come to my shows anymore,” he said. “But I’ll be happier years from now if my children enjoy the results of the sacrifices I’m making today.”
Seyi Law also made it clear that he has no plans to ever support Peter Obi’s political ambition. He criticized Obi for not calling out the behavior of some members of the Obidient movement, who he said went as far as attacking his wife and kids online.
“The moment you come for my children, my mother, or my wife — that’s a line you don’t cross,” he said firmly. “Peter Obi has never acknowledged what some of his supporters did. As long as he keeps acting like nothing happened, he won’t have my support.”
He added that no matter what Obi does, even if he becomes saint-like, he won’t forgive that silence. For him, any group that doesn’t allow freedom of thought is no better than a cult.
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
