Group: Seyi Tinubu is a leader for all tribes and religions
Furthermore, they praised Seyi Tinubu for his detribalized nature and strong ability to unite diverse groups within Lagos, Vanguard reported.
“We believe Seyi Tinubu is the right person to continue his father’s work. Like his father, Seyi has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to empowering people of all tribes and religions.
"Lagos, with its diverse populace, needs a leader who can rise above tribal and religious lines, and Seyi is that leader," said Dr. Kavwam.
The group highlighted that Seyi Tinubu’s approach to leadership is inclusive, as he believes in empowering all citizens, irrespective of their background.
Addressing Seyi Tinubu's unique qualities, Capt Kane stated,
“Seyi Tinubu stands out from the rest. While many children of political leaders are disconnected from the people, Seyi has maintained close connections with people from all walks of life.
"His ability to build relationships across tribes and religions makes him the ideal candidate to lead a state as diverse as Lagos."
The group pointed out that Seyi’s marriage to a South-Eastern woman further strengthened his understanding of Nigeria’s diverse cultures and his capacity to bridge gaps between different ethnic groups, Leadership reported.
"Seyi’s connection to various tribes, including his roots in the South-East, shows his commitment to national unity," they added.

The group also applauded Seyi Tinubu’s contributions to youth empowerment and national integration.
“His involvement in humanitarian efforts, such as his swift response to the Borno floods, shows his genuine care for Nigerians. Many sons and daughters of political elites would not engage in such acts, but Seyi went beyond expectations,” said Dr. Kavwam.
