Seyi Tinubu has confronted businessman and political commentator Isaac Fayose over his criticism of the City Boy movement’s walk in Port Harcourt.
President Bola Tinubu’s son described the gathering as a successful and peaceful event attended by young Nigerians.
The exchange happened on social media after Fayose questioned the number of participants and described the walk as a waste of time.
Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, has responded sharply to businessman Isaac Fayose after he criticised the City Boy movement’s recent walk in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Seyi defended the gathering, insisting that it was successful and attended by supporters of his father’s administration. He also advised Fayose to conduct himself properly instead of attacking the group’s activities.
What Isaac Fayose said about the City Boy walk
The disagreement started after Fayose took to social media to question the Port Harcourt City Boy walk.
The businessman reportedly described the gathering as a waste of time and expressed doubts about the number of people who participated in the exercise.
His comments attracted a response from Seyi, who joined the discussion in the comment section of the post.
Rather than ignore the criticism, the president’s son directly addressed Fayose, whom he referred to as his content creator brother.
Seyi Tinubu’s message to Isaac Fayose
Seyi defended the participants, describing them as young Nigerians who peacefully came together to show their support for President Tinubu and his administration.
He maintained that the gathering was successful despite Fayose’s criticism.
In his response, Seyi wrote:
“My content creator Egbon e behave ara yin o. 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.”
His response also included an appeal for support for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
The exchange has brought renewed attention to the City Boy movement and its activities in different parts of the country.
Fayose’s recent political controversy
Meanwhile, Fayose has recently made another claim involving his political position and support for Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).
In a video shared on his verified Facebook page on Sunday, November 8, 2026, he alleged that he was being targeted with false accusations because of his support for Obi.
He was responding to a post by an unnamed blogger linking him to a rape allegation, which he dismissed as fabricated and intended to damage his reputation.
Fayose further alleged that people who reject offers from the APC often become targets of smear campaigns.
Meanwhile, Deji Adeyanju has challenged former Chicago State University lecturer Tokunbo Pearse over his latest comments about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s academic records.
Deji Adeyanju described the repeated controversy surrounding Tinubu’s CSU attendance as boring and a distraction from more pressing political issues.
The activist made his position known in a social media response, urging opposition figures to concentrate on another campaign agendas and preventing electoral malpractice ahead of 2027.
Deji Adeyanju Responds to Tokunbo Pearse
Nigerian activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has reacted to fresh allegations by former Chicago State University lecturer Tokunbo Pearse against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, describing the repeated controversy surrounding the president’s academic records as a distraction.
Deji Adeyanju, in a statement shared on Monday morning, November 9, argued that the opposition should pay greater attention to preparations for the 2027 general election instead of repeatedly revisiting the CSU controversy that had been settled.
His response followed Pearse’s latest criticism of Tinubu, in which the former lecturer questioned the president’s claim of attending the American university.
Pearse had claimed that he spent five years teaching at the institution and served as the director of the programme Tinubu reportedly attended. Continue reading here.
