Professor Wole Soyinka has criticised the 'excessive security' deployment around President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's son, Seyi Tinubu, saying that it reflects poorly on Nigeria's security priorities.

Some online have commended Soyinka’s comments, stating that leaders’ children are not elected officials and that security should protect more than a privileged few.

Seyi is not a VIP but a private citizen who is not even in the country. I think the security should be around the President and not his son.

Even in USA president children are well protected by CIA and other big forces even after presidential tenure is over. I'm not a big fan of Tinubu but na normal thing
Re: Seyi Tinubu Not A VIP Under The Protocol List Of Nigeria - Abati (Video) by otunbakolawole(m): 6:22am On Dec 11, 2025
Seyi Tinubu moves around like a sitting president, not a private citizen. That level of security isn’t protection anymore, it’s intimidation.
Re: Seyi Tinubu Not A VIP Under The Protocol List Of Nigeria - Abati (Video) by Exousiang01(m): 6:22am On Dec 11, 2025
Yes.
But Seyi is a member of the first family.

Some of these opposition guys talk like they have brain ache
Re: Seyi Tinubu Not A VIP Under The Protocol List Of Nigeria - Abati (Video) by ChiefOloye(m): 6:22am On Dec 11, 2025
Seyi too should respect himself and try maintain a modest lifestyle. He is not Tinubu's only son. Why are the others not being in the news like him.
Re: Seyi Tinubu Not A VIP Under The Protocol List Of Nigeria - Abati (Video) by ARISHEM: 6:22am On Dec 11, 2025
It happens under one of the worst government in the world.
A good government striving to become better will not allow this to happen
Re: Seyi Tinubu Not A VIP Under The Protocol List Of Nigeria - Abati (Video) by adioolayi(m): 6:23am On Dec 11, 2025
I agree, Seyi Tinubu is not an elected official...

But as a member of the President's immediate family...his son...

Do we honestly think he is an ordinary citizenhuh

Don't we think, him being the son of the President, he is exposed to security risks than ordinary citizenhuh

Let us in all honesty, reflect on this without sentiment or emotions.


I agree with Prof Soyinka...he is not suppose to have large number of security details...but saying he is ordinary and shouldn't have any form of protection..I think that's not correct 💯

It is protocol.
Not about what you think.
The first family is protected in every country.
It is a global practice.
This is because if enemies can't get your president they will go for his loved ones. The president becomes devasted, depressed and this affects his performance in office.
It's common sense.

Yes the security detail on Seyi is excessive but he is to be protected, it's protocol

Would you be so nonchalant about Tinubu’s incompetence, cluelessness and misplaced priorities if you lost your loved ones to terrorists, bandits, kidnappers and other criminals huh

Maxymilliano:
The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has explained why he delegated some members of the party to respond to questions posed to him.
According to the former Lagos Governor, he adopted the delegation method “to show team-ship”.

Tinubu spoke at the Chatham House lecture titled: ‘Nigeria’s 2023 elections: In conversation with Bola Ahmed Tinubu’, monitored by The Nation.

At the lecture, Tinubu after his opening remarks, assigned Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai to speak on how his (Tinubu-led) government would address insecurity and asked the Director of Strategic Communication of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, Dele Aleke, to respond to the question on oil theft.

(A case study of Nigeria citizens & their elected oppressors).

During the Soviet dictatorship of Joseph stalin. He was a brutal dictator with mind of his own. On one fateful day, stalin came to Politburo meeting with a live chicken. Standing in front of audience, He started to pluck the feathers of the live chicken off one by one. The chicken trembled in pain, blood tricking out of its pores. It gave out grievous cries, but stalin being a cruel dictator continued without remorse plucking the feathers out until the chicken was completely Unclad. After which, he threw the chicken on the ground. The Unclad chicken was staggering in pain. stalin goes into his pocket and from his pockets, he took out some chicken food and started to throw it at the poor & hapless creature. The poor chicken in pain started eating and stalin started walking towards his seat. As he walked away, he kept dropping some feeds on the floor & the chicken followed him and sat feeding from his feet.

Joseph stalin then turned to members of his political party leadership. He said, "This chicken represents the people". "You must disempower them, brutalise them, beat them up, starve them and then leave them". "If you do this, go into your pocket & give them peanuts when they are in that helpless and desperate situation, they will blindly follow you for the rest of their life, worshiping you". "They will think you are a hero forever. They will forget that, you're responsible for their sorrowful situation in the first place." Breath taking, isn't it ?

Now! Take a look at all the people some Nigerians are busy defending on social media. Take a look at those they call their heroes. They are the same people who plunged Nigeria into the situation she is. They are the same people who are responsible for their predicaments. Did you see the numbers of people that throng to Saraki's House during this Sallah period to go collect peanuts? People trooping to Bola Ahmed Tinubu Foundation offices to collect branded One kilo bag of Rice & Noddles. Did you see the number of people of all ages who troop out to welcome Ex- convict James Ibori to South South! Do you see the number of handle mop following obi as if he is a seat? what of the one following dino malaye?

Your guess is as good as mine. Nigerians kill those they should defend and defend those they should kill! Pass to all your contacts & let your Political & Religion Leaders read, understand & digest.

He should have a form of protection. But it should not be excessive. That is the argument

APC is the worst things that ever happened to Nigeria , imagine a non elected wife instructing and elected governor and a son acting like a president in Ghana. In as much as I respect the president, this will come and haunt us back in history, buhari did not act this way and the past presidents never did either..

What makes us pay taxes but not expect to receive commensurate government services and utilities, which is provided by well paid civil servants like Americans and other japa destinations where we are racially discriminated against?

Is it just tribalism for zoning and rotation of all government positions at the local, state and federal levels either legislative or executive branch? Or do you think that it is more than that? What do you think is really responsible for this situationhuh


TheBedWench:
The one-drop rule is a social and legal principle of racial classification that was historically prominent in the United States in the 20th century. It asserted that any person with even one ancestor of black ancestry ("one drop" of black blood)[1][2] is considered black (Negro or colored in historical terms).

This concept became codified into the law of some states in the early 20th century. It was associated with the principle of "invisible blackness" that developed after the long history of racial interaction in the South, which had included the hardening of slavery as a racial caste and later segregation. It is an example of hypodescent, the automatic assignment of children of a mixed union between different socioeconomic or ethnic groups to the group with the lower status, regardless of proportion of ancestry in different groups.[3]

The one-drop rule is defunct in law in the United States and was never codified into federal law.
