Conference of Patrotic Nigerians (COPAN) cordinator, Barr. Odieli Uchenna, has urged Nigerians to give Barr. Seyi Tinubu a fair chance to prove himself and avoid making assumptions based on his family relationship.
Recently, Nigerians expressed their dissatisfaction over Seyi, President Bola Tinubu’s first son’s presence at the swearing-in ceremony of the acting Chief Justice of Nigeria, Kudirat Kekere-Ekun.
Kekere-Ekun took the oath of office and signed the oath register at 11.40 am at the Council Chamber of the State House, Abuja on Friday as the 23rd CJN, pending her confirmation by the Senate.
She succeeded Olukayode Ariwoola, who assumed office on June 27, 2022, and bowed out upon attaining the mandatory retirement age of 70 years.
However, a picture of the president’s son at the event went viral on Monday, with netizens questioning what he was doing in a place where only cabinet members and top government functionaries were supposed to be.
Barr. Uchenna while reacting to this, said many public figures have their family members involved in their offices, and it’s not uncommon for family members to share expertise and experience
