up to celebrate Mr. Seyi Tinubu, a distinguished youth icon, philanthropist,
and visionary Nigerian.
“We are celebrating Seyi’s 40th birthday, who despite
holding no elective office, has continued to champion educational and
humanitarian causes, thereby serving as a moral example to the younger
generation,” Olorunsola said.
Also speaking, one of the youth leaders, Isyaku Rabi’u said
the decision to celebrate Seyi Tinubu’s 40th birthday was in recognition of his
commitment towards promoting youth empowerment.

necessary to appreciate and celebrate him,” he said.
