Seyi Tinubu, the son of Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, has issued a sharp rebuke to businessman Isaac Fayose following criticism of the recent "City Boy" walk in Port Harcourt. In a post on his Instagram account on Sunday, Seyi Tinubu directly addressed Fayose, urging him to "behave himself" and cease his attacks on the event.
The controversy stems from Fayose’s earlier comments mocking the gathering. As the younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, Isaac Fayose had questioned the purpose of the walk, describing it as a waste of time and criticizing the crowd that participated in the demonstration.
Responding to these remarks, Seyi Tinubu defended the event as a peaceful assembly of young people expressing their support for the current administration. He asserted that the participants had every right to walk, sing, and demonstrate their backing for the President without facing insults or disparagement.
"Behave yourself," Seyi Tinubu told Fayose in his social media post. He warned Fayose against seeking attention by using the President's name and emphasized that the walk was organized by youths who believe in the Tinubu administration.
The President's son further argued that Isaac Fayose should respect the choices of young Nigerians who decided to participate in the Port Harcourt event. He added that individuals who disapprove of the walk should simply stay away rather than attempting to spoil the experience for others.
