VeryDarkMan said in a video he posted on Instagram on Friday that he would support Seyi to be governor of Lagos because it would signal a shift in Nigeria’s politics for young people to take over political offices.
Controversial internet personality, Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan has stated that he would throw his weight behind Seyi Tinubu if he decides to run for governorship in Lagos State.
While neither Seyi nor his father has spoken publicly about the governorship contest, several groups have endorsed Seyi for the office of governor.
VeryDarkMan said in a video he posted on Instagram on Friday that he would support Seyi to be governor of Lagos because it would signal a shift in Nigeria’s politics for young people to take over political offices.
The 39-year-old Seyi will be 42 in 2027 and could be the youngest governor in the history of Lagos.
“If Seyi Tinubu decides to run for governorship…I’m going to campaign for him. I don’t do politics but I’ll do politics because of Seyi Tinubu,” VeryDarkMan said.
“Based on my calculation, Seyi Tinubu is a bridge to get something that I want, something that I believe will make Nigeria work,” he added.
According to him, Seyi plays his father’s kind of politics where he positions people early enough in different levels of relevance to do his bidding.
VeryDarkMan said he suspects that Seyi already has loyalists in advantageous positions. He said those loyalists are not likely to be older folks because they would be difficult for him to control.
According to the controversial personality, with Seyi as governor of Lagos State, he is likely to begin supporting his loyalists to emerge as governors and top political office holders in different states.
VeryDarkMan proposed that young folks may then rebel against Seyi, leading to positive outcomes for the country.
