2027: “No vacancy for non-indigenes in Alausa” – Lagos youths tell Seyi Tinubu

The Coalition of Lagos Indigenous Youths has rejected the recent endorsement of Mr Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for the Lagos State Governorship contest in 2027. Recall that a group known as Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL), had endorsed the younger Tinubu as the next governor of the state. However, the Lagos youths stated that there is no vacancy for non-indigenes to occupy the Alausa Government house. The coalition made this declaration in a release signed by its President, Abdul Kareem Whyte, a copy of which was made available to journalists on Thursday. Part of the statement read: “Our attention has been drawn to the recent endorsement of Seyi Tinubu for Lagos governor by a group known as Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL) and the group is described as the the umbrella body of all the youth groups drawn across the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria. “The said Coalition sat in Owerri, Imo State and publicly issued the statement on endorsement, while we know Mr Seyi Tinubu has his democratic rights as a Nigerian, we condemn the ill-fated endorsement and described it as anti-democracy and a deliberate move by some faceless individuals to deny indigenes of Lagos State right to govern themselves in 2027. “As for us, there is no vacancy for non-indigenes in Lagos State in 2027. The marginalization is too much and the marginalization has led to the underdevelopment in the state. “It’s unbelievable that since 1999, our hinterlands are not developed, no good roads, Lagos State living on debt and our traditional system distorted by successive governments.” The coalition, therefore, enjoined the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Osuolale Akiolu, to beware of persons who would soon seek indigeneship of Lagos State because of 2027.
