Woman’s Prayer for Seyi Tinubu Sparks Heated Online Reactions

A video showing a young woman fervently praying for Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, has sparked widespread discussion on social media.

In the viral clip, recorded during Seyi Tinubu’s visit to a community, women were seen holding his photos. One woman prayed aloud, saying: “He is coming to change Nigeria, to bring the glory of Nigeria, we appreciate all his effort, this is the best President, we are very proud of him…” Others around her echoed “Amen” in support.

The video has elicited mixed reactions from Nigerians online. Some praised the woman’s faith and dedication, while others criticized what they described as sycophantic behavior. Social media users shared varied opinions:

• Mezie commented: “Many youths who sing Tinubu’s praises are usually the first to post their Opay accounts during giveaways.”
• Annie joked: “This one wants her share of the national moi moi.”
• Benignus noted: “This is the state of Nigeria today. Poverty reduces people to this level of sycophancy. A new Nigeria cannot emerge without people shunning such behavior.”
• CC Kings added humorously: “Seyi better have given her a Bible because I know that’s what she’s requesting. If she had her belly full, would she even do this?”

The video highlights how political figures and their families continue to draw both admiration and scrutiny from the public, often sparking lively debates on social media.
