Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, has responded to social media critic Isaac Fayose after he questioned the large security contingent accompanying him at the Port Harcourt City Boy Walk.
Seyi urged Fayose to “behave” in a comment on his Instagram video, where the critic faulted Nigerian youths for supporting the President’s administration and participating in the political gathering.
The exchange, which took place on November 7 and attracted attention on Monday, saw Seyi describe Fayose as his “content creator Egbon” while defending the security operatives present at the event.
“My content creator Egbon e behave ara yin o (elder brother, behave yourself). You and I both know that those gallant men and women were there for the city boy walk in PH, which was a success by the way. Vote APC,” Seyi wrote.
Fayose had earlier posted a video questioning the attendance and organisation of the Port Harcourt event, which took place on November 6. He also raised concerns about the number of security personnel assigned to Seyi, including police officers, Department of State Services operatives and civil defence officers.
In the video, Fayose criticised young Nigerians who participated in the walk, accusing them of giving political activities priority over pressing national challenges such as insecurity and economic hardship.
In the caption accompanying the video, he wrote, “Gen Z in Nigeria means Gen Zero!!! Lazy youth everywhere like pure water. Very soon APC go bu£y una.”
He also expressed dissatisfaction with what he described as the misplaced priorities of Nigerian youths, stating, “See what the youths all around the world are doing but you Gen Z, you are the Gen Zero of our time, the country is going cuckoo, and you are there.”
The Port Harcourt City Boy Walk was organised under the activities of the City Boy Movement, a political support group promoting President Tinubu’s administration.
