The president of National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Atiku Isah has apologised to President Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu over allegations against him.

Isah in a statement released on his Facebook page on Wednesday, May 7th, 2025 said:

“Setting the Records Straight/Public Apology to Seyi Tinubu. In the video, I also alleged that, for what they considered my stubbornness to reject their N100,000,000, I was on the 15th of April 2025 abducted, stripped naked, and thoroughly beaten up, and in connivance with the MD of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), I was taken to the station where an involuntary statement purportedly abdicating my position as NANS President was obtained under duress.”

“It has become clear that the offer of N100,000,000, which was alleged was made to me to support President Tinubu, was clearly untrue, as Ladoja Olusola, who was desperate to get me out of my legitimate position as the duly elected President of the National Association of Nigerian Students, fed me lies and half-truths for the sole purpose of achieving his selfish agenda of taking over the reins of the student body through the back doors.”

“It was also Ladoja Olusola who warned me that Mr Seyi Tinubu could order my killing and thereafter instruct the Inspector General of Police, Mr Kayode Egbetokun, to bury the matter.”

“I made these claims owing to the picture of Seyi Tinubu painted to me by Ladoja Olusola, who swore to me that Seyi was doing everything to ensure I am not alive to serve my tenure as NANS president.”

“In fact, I later found out that Mr Seyi was nowhere near the venue.”
