Seyi Tinubu Reviewing Guard of Honour, Gross Violation of Military Tradition — Atiku, George Prominent political figures, including a former Vice President and a former Deputy National Chairman of a major opposition party, have strongly criticized the president's son for reviewing a military-style guard of honour performed by a group of youths dressed in military uniforms in Ogun State, calling the viral incident an unprecedented violation of military tradition and an inappropriate display. The former Vice President demanded a thorough official investigation into the unauthorized parade, raising serious concerns over the use of firearms by civilians and the legitimacy of the unrecognized group involved, while the other political leader warned that even children of past military rulers never partook in such acts and advised the president's son to avoid actions that could spark controversy and undermine public trust.
