If Your Father Did Well, You Don’t Need To Buy People With Money – Actor Austine Emmanuel Knocks Seyi Tinubu (Video)

Nollywood actor Austine Emmanuel has accused Seyi Tinubu of offering financial incentives to gain support for his father ahead of the 2027 election.

Austine Emmanuel, in a video shared on his Instagram page, urged Seyi to be more mindful of his father’s legacy.

The movie star asserted that Tinubu’s supporters are motivated by financial gain rather than genuine belief in his leadership.

According to Emmanuel, if Tinubu’s administration were effectively delivering the dividends of democracy, there would be no need for financial inducements to earn support.

He argued that the focus on a potential re-election campaign overlooks the country’s current economic struggles.

He said, “Seyi Tinubu, all you are concerned about is how your dad will become the president again, but you are not bothered about the legacy he will leave behind. What will people say about him when he leaves? People around you will not tell you the truth because they are only after your money.

“People following you now will not follow you if money wasn’t involved. It’s all fake love. If President Tinubu did well, you don’t need to buy people with money before they support you.” 

Speaking on the recently appointed coordinators of the City Boy Movement (CBM), a support group of President Tinubu, Emmanuel claimed that Nigerian socialites, Obi Cubana and Cubana Chief Priest, are deceiving Seyi Tinubu.

He added, “How nice would it be if your Dad did one single thing for the masses in the last four years. Obi Cubana and Cubana Chief Priest are just deceiving you.

“When they get to their polling unit, they can never vote for your dad. The masses are suffering. Your Dad didn’t do well. There is no food, no security and no money.”

Nollywood Actor Austine Emmanuel: “Seyi Tinubu, your focus seems to be solely on ensuring your father returns to power, yet there's little attention paid to the legacy he will leave behind.
