Seyi Tinubu blasts media for leaking President Tinubu’s speech online before its official broadcast.
Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has expressed outrage over the leak of his father’s speech online hours before it was delivered to the nation.
The speech, which addressed the ongoing protests against the government’s leadership, was meant to be a live broadcast, but copies of it were released online beforehand.
Seyi Tinubu took to social media to vent his frustration, revealing that providing the media with an embargoed copy of a president’s address before the live broadcast is standard practice globally. However, he accused a member of the media of violating journalistic ethics and professionalism by leaking the speech before it was delivered.
“It is standard global practice anywhere in the world to provide an embargoed copy of a President’s address to the media prior to him going live,” Seyi Tinubu said on his Instagram story. “Someone in the media (outside the villa) broke the code of journalistic ethics and professionalism by releasing it before the actual address was delivered.”
