The Nigerian Youth Parliament NYP, has commended Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the distribution of 50 wheelchairs to some physically challenged persons.
Speaker of the Parliament, Dr. Azeezat Yishawu, made the commendation in a statement made available to newsmen. She said Seyi has distinguished himself by his continuous engagement and consultations with youths across Nigeria.
Yishawu said, Seyi has visited many states in the country, meeting various youth groups, mobilising and canvassing heavily, giving a listening ear to aggrieved members of almost all groups and creating a balance where all members can be brought to the same table to work together.
She described him as a strong influence saying, “Seyi Tinubu is not an average individual or just a member of the first family. Series of activities he has engaged himself in have depicted him to be a bridge between the powerful political class and average young Nigerians.
“Seyi Tinubu has now been taken as a role model to so many young people for taking young people along and always working to ensure youth inclusion through his influence.
“He has shown a strong desire to ensure the younger generation gets a good bargain in the current administration and the results are already here.
“He has become the lens and voice through which the yearnings of the Nigerian youth can be seen and heard, a role that goes beyond just being a first son. We have seen many sons of presidents in the past but Seyi Tinubu is bringing humility and selflessness into the game.
“This has made many young minds to repose a level of confidence in him to be a catalyst for the growth and development of the Nigerian youth. We have seen his continuous engagement of various youth and student stakeholders in his active political participation”,she said.
She also recalled Seyi Tinubu’s pre- Inauguration youth concert and donation of six brand new buses and multiple Android phones and other forms of empowerment in just one night, assuring that it is an indication that the tides in the next four years will be good.
“Seyi is changing the narratives and ensuring young people are involved in politics, governance and administration. Nigeria is ours, Nigeria we serve”, she applauded.
