An unidentified male who claimed to be a journalist, few days ago, reportedly dialed the number of the executive chairman of Loatsad Promomedia, Mr. Seyi Tinubu and demanded to be paid the sum of N7 million so he would not release to the public via the social media a video clip he claimed was in his possession where Seyi was caught fighting at a Lagos nightclub.
Sources said that though Seyi sensed blackmail and called his bluff asking the caller to go ahead and release the video to the public, his friends and business associates prevailed on him to play smart by going public first to prevent the trickster from soiling his hard-earned reputation and family name.
Seyi is the son of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a former governor of Lagos State and national leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
