Details have emerged about how President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s first son, Seyi, was prevented from joining a meeting with the new Catholic Pontiff, Pope Leo XIV.
The Holy Father had invited President Tinubu to his inauguration, which took place yesterday, Sunday, May 18, 2025 and Nigeria’s First Son was among those on his father’s entourage.
President Tinubu was among world leader’s granted audience by Pope Leo after the Inauguration Mass at the Vatican.
Dressed in a black suit like his father, Seyi attempted to catch up with the president, but was blocked by a security official blocked.
In an incident captured on Camera (see photo above), the younger Tinubu was seen walking towards his father’s direction when a plain-clothes security official blocked and redirected him calmly.
He was, thus, unable to join his father as President Tinubu exchanged pleasantries with the Supreme Pontiff. (Century Post/Newsexpress)
