The thuggery accusations against President Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu, have been described as “concerning” by Peter Obi, the former Labour Party presidential candidate.
According to reports, Atiku Abubakar Isah, the divisive president of the NANS, recently accused Seyi Tinubu of kidnapping and torturing him because he refused to accept an alleged bribe.
Atiku further claimed that Tinubu’s son used goons to scatter the audience in an attempt to sabotage the Federal Capital Territory’s (FCT) NANS leadership inauguration.
Reacting to the incident, Peter Obi in a statement said the “troubling” allegations, if true, “raises critical questions about the independence of student leadership and the subtle erosion of young voices in our democracy.
He said “Nigeria’s youth should not feel coerced, silenced, or absorbed into political agendas that do not reflect their will.
“The oppression of young voices, whether through force, patronage, or intimidation, is a dangerous path that we must not normalize.
“We must return to Nigeria where justice is done and is seen to be done without theatrics or abuse.
“A country where youth can speak freely, judges can serve with dignity, and institutions act responsibly. That is the Nigeria we must rebuild”.
