Mohammed, in a Facebook post on Sunday, March 16, urged Seyi Tinubu to provide Bauchi youths with employment opportunities, resources to start businesses, and training in crypto trading, among other forms of empowerment rather than temporary handouts.
Legit.ng recalls that Seyi Tinubu’s recent northern tour, which focused on Ramadan solidarity and empowerment initiatives, continues to generate mixed reactions.
Recall that while speaking to some youths in Yola, Adamawa state, Seyi described his dad as the greatest president in Nigeria’s history. He also fumed at critics of his father, who he alleged had malicious intent.

He said:
“Please, when coming to Bauchi for the #RHYE, empower our youths with employment, Keke NAPEP, monies to start a business, ICT infrastructure and training for crypto trading and so on.
“Please, we the youths of Bauchi don’t need rice and food in nylon bags during Ramadan.
“Teach our youths how to fish, rather than feed them for one day.
“They are not beggars.”
He maintained that Bauchi youths don’t need food donations but rather opportunities to become self-sufficient.
