Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Labour Party has described as troubling the recent allegations against President Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu.
Newspot reports that the factional NANS President, Atiku Abubakar Isah recently accused Seyi Tinubu of abducting and torturing him over his refusal to accept alleged bribe.
Atiku also alleged that Tinubu’s son attempted to disrupt the inauguration of the NANS leadership in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, by dispersing the crowd with thugs.
Reacting, 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”.
