VeryDarkMan, in the old video from January 2025, stated that while he typically distances himself from the political sphere, he would defy this stance for Seyi.

“If Seyi Tinubu decides to run for governorship, I’ll campaign for him. Though I don’t involve myself in politics, I’ll do it because of him,” VDM said in a video shared via his Instagram page.

“Based on my calculation, Seyi Tinubu is a bridge to achieving something I believe will make Nigeria work,” he added.
“I’ve been studying Seyi Tinubu’s pattern; he seems to have his father’s political mentality,” VDM said.

However, the social commentator noted that the president’s son might face challenges in his ‘unconfirmed’ interest in becoming governor, due to older politicians who may feel threatened.

Recall that King Mitchy and VDM had engaged in an online feud after she dragged him over renovating schools, with the online critic claiming that the president's son had been funding the influencer since 2023.

King Mitchy also reacted to VeryDarkMan's accusation of inappropriate behaviour with Seyi, alleging that she was 'licking lollipop'.
