The City Boy Movement has dismissed as false a viral claim alleging that Seyi Tinubu said God could not stop his father, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, from completing eight years in office.
The controversy erupted after a Facebook user identified as Albab Abdullahi circulated a post accusing Seyi Tinubu of making what was described as a “blasphemous” statement in relation to the president’s perceived 2027 re-election ambition.
According to the viral claim, Seyi allegedly said: “There is nothing that can stop my father from completing his eight years in power. Not even God is capable.”
However, the City Boy Movement has strongly denied the statement, insisting that Seyi Tinubu never made such remarks and describing the post as false, misleading, and deliberately inflammatory.
The group urged members of the public to verify information before sharing politically charged content on social media, warning against the spread of fabricated statements capable of deepening tensions in Nigeria’s already heated pre-2027 political atmosphere.
