 Tinubu’s Son, Seyi, Reveals How President’s Speech Was Leaked Hours Before Broadcast


Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has expressed outrage over the leak of his father’s speech online hours before it was delivered to the nation.

Seyi Tinubu took to social media to vent his frustration, revealing that providing the media with an embargoed copy of a president’s address before the live broadcast is standard practice globally. However, he accused a member of the media of violating journalistic ethics and professionalism by leaking the speech before it was delivered.
