The CityBoy Movement has dismissed as false and malicious a viral social media publication allegedly attributing blasphemous statements to its Patron, Barr. Seyi Tinubu, regarding Almighty God and the 2027 presidential election.
In a statement signed on Monday by O’tega Ogra, the group Deputy Director-General, Communication and Public Affairs, said the write-up, purportedly authored by one “Albaabu Abudulahi,” is deliberately inflammatory and intended to mislead the public and provoke religious tension.
It stressed that Seyi Tinubu never made such comments “at any time, in any place, through any channel or under any circumstance whatsoever.”
“For the avoidance of doubt, Barr. Seyi Tinubu did not make the statement credited to him. The attribution is entirely false, malicious in intent, reckless in circulation and dangerous in consequence,” the statement read.
The Movement further described Seyi Tinubu as a man of faith who holds deep reverence for God, insisting that he has never disrespected or questioned the supremacy of Almighty God.
“Barr. Seyi Tinubu is a man of faith who holds deep reverence for Almighty God. He believes firmly that all power belongs to God alone and that no man can attain, retain or exercise authority except by the grace, mercy and permission of the Almighty,” it stated.
