He voiced support for Seyi Tinubu’s alleged governorship ambition, and noted that critics will live to see him achieve it.
As reported by The Guardian on Friday, March 28, this followed an endorsement of Seyi Tinubu for the governorship seat by the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders (CONYL).
According to the coalition, Seyi Tinubu is the ideal candidate for the seat in 2027.
Obidike said:
“Seyi Tinubu is a capable and competent individual who will focus on key areas such as infrastructure development, economic growth, and social welfare. His vision aligns with the APC’s goals of promoting progress and prosperity for all Nigerians.”
Amid the debate about who succeeds Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Seyi Tinubu is yet to declare an ambition to takeover from the helms of affairs in Lagos state in 2027.

Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG reported that Seyi Tinubu continued to generate reactions from concerned Nigerians, with the recent endorsement of him to be the next Lagos state governor.
Bisi Afolabi, a legal practitioner, in an exclusive interview with TheTalk.NG maintained that Seyi Tinubu has the right to contest, and those endorsing him are still within the frame of the law.
However, Afolabi posited that the governorship ambition of Seyi Tinubu may suffer the same fate as that of Adetokunbo Awolowo-Dosunmu, the first daughter of late Obafemi Awolowo.

Earlier, TheTalk.NG reported that the Lagos state chapter of the PDP rejected the alleged gubernatorial interest of Seyi Tinubu, son of President Tinubu.
In an interview, Hakeem Amode, the Lagos PDP spokesperson, criticised the alleged gubernatorial move, adding that non-indigenes should not be allowed to govern Lagos state.
The PDP official stressed that if the Tinubu camp were to resort to tactics similar to those used in Ondo and Edo states in the past, it would be met with resistance.
