Seyi Tinubu denies allegations by NANS President

Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, has strongly denied allegations leveled against him by the President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Comrade Atiku Abubakar Isah, calling them a deliberate attempt to tarnish his image

In a statement shared via Instagram on Friday, Seyi wrote, “Wow… how can someone lie with so much confidence…?? Wow wow… an attempt to defame my character. May God be with you, Comrade Atiku Isah.”

In a follow-up post, he added, “I have never held a meeting to discuss any subject matter with Comrade Isah in Lagos or anywhere else in the world. I have never knowingly met him before. Neither did I visit any location with thugs.”

He further dismissed the accusations as “completely fictional.”

Seyi’s reaction comes after a press conference held by Comrade Isah on Wednesday, where the student leader alleged that Seyi Tinubu and the Minister of Youth Development, Ayodele Olawande, attempted to bribe him with N100 million in Lagos to promote President Tinubu.

Isah claimed he rejected the offer, stating he could not support a president who had not delivered results. According to him, his refusal allegedly led to a plot to abduct him.

“I was abducted on the 15th of April. I was stripped naked, beaten seriously in collaboration with the MD of NTA… I did that to gain my freedom, but immediately, I released a press statement that I was forced under duress. Because I was naked, I was beaten. They claimed they would share the video,” he said.

He also alleged that he received threats suggesting any fallout from the incident could be covered up, even if it led to his death.

“They told me that nothing would happen if they shared the video, and even if they killed me, Seyi Tinubu would order a cover-up. Ladoja, who was involved, said he would instruct the Inspector General of Police to cover it up and that if the police didn’t comply, he would go,” he claimed.

Despite the threats, Isah said he remained undeterred: “I made it clear that even if I am shot, I will still come to this hall. The inauguration proceeded, and I was announced as president. I want Nigerians to know what has happened and that we will not give up. Seyi Tinubu can do anything he wants, but we are determined.”
