EDITORIAL: Generational dissonance or Prejudice? Seyi Tinubu and The Ignorance of Abati

When the two daughters of former United States’ President Bush threw a lavish party at the height of election campaigns in the early 2000s, many commentators in the United States were irked by the development. Earlier in 2001, President Bush's then 19-year-old twin daughters, Jenna and Barbara, had been cited by Texas authorities for alcohol violations at a popular Austin restaurant.

Hear him: “May we begin to ask what the President’s children do for a living? I mean, by the time I was their age I was doing something concrete. I got a PhD at 24. I wasn’t depending on any father. People must get to a stage in their lives when they hold themselves together. But like I said, we must be careful not to sully hardworking persons for the simple crime that their father is a President. Not even when these young men, particularly Seyi Tinubu, have made enormous impact in business long before their father contested for presidential elections.

Seyi has been at the tiller of the companies’ merger with Promomedia back in 2016, which saw the company opening up its portfolio of services by incorporating digital advertising. The company has since taken strides in defining its position in the out of Home Advertising sector with its acquisition of E-motion Advertising Ltd, a leading advertising firm.

Seyi is equally passionate about foreign investment and privatization, information technology & outdoor and digital, human resources, and that explains his passion to deploy his expertise to ensure that his father succeeds in such key areas. As a testament to this, he has attended numerous local and international business summits including the Lagos Small Business Summit held in 2019, SDG summit in Ghana, among others.
