Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, has sparked reactions online after a viral video showed him handing a bundle of cash to a female passenger in a commercial tricycle during a political mobilisation visit to Kebbi State. The woman had just expressed support for President Tinubu when Seyi handed her the money.

The incident has triggered debate about political generosity, voter influence and possible vote-buying ahead of the 2027 general elections. Although the video does not establish that the money was exchanged for a promise to vote, questions are being raised about whether political support should be earned through policies and performance rather than cash handouts.
