OTN News observes that Seyi’s statement came after the from former President Olusegun Obasanjo, recently accused the Tinubu administration of corruption.

Obasanjo lamented that most Nigerian leaders enrich themselves while the country remains underdeveloped, citing examples of former governors who allegedly cleared their massive debts within two years in office without legitimate business operations.
