Social media personality VeryDarkMan has endorsed Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu, for the 2027 Lagos governorship election. He believes Seyi’s candidacy will usher in a new era of young leadership, positioning loyalists in key roles to bring about positive change in Nigerian politics.
Social media personality Martins Otse, also known as VeryDarkMan, has publicly endorsed Seyi Tinubu, the son of President Bola Tinubu, for the 2027 Lagos governorship election. In a video shared on Instagram, VeryDarkMan expressed that Seyi’s potential candidacy could mark a shift in Nigerian politics by bringing younger individuals into power. At 39 years old, Seyi will be 42 in 2027, potentially becoming the youngest governor in Lagos’ history.
VeryDarkMan praised Seyi's political style, noting similarities to his father’s approach, particularly in strategically positioning loyalists in key roles. He suggested that Seyi already has a network of young, loyal supporters, which could give him an advantage in the race. VeryDarkMan believes Seyi’s leadership could pave the way for a new generation of politicians to rise in Lagos and across Nigeria. While neither Seyi nor his father have confirmed his candidacy, the endorsement from VeryDarkMan adds to the growing list of supporters backing Seyi for the Lagos governorship.
