In a statement issued by its National President, High Chief Promise Lawuru and made available to newsmen in Warri, the group cited 101 compelling reasons why Seyi is the ideal candidate for the job.

According to the SYM, Seyi meets all the constitutional requirements to contest for the governorship seat, being a Lagosian and having the requisite age and qualifications.
Specifically, the group emphasized that Seyi’s digital experience and expertise would be a significant asset in governing the state, which is in dire need of expansion and development.
The statement read in part: “We have 101 reasons he should be governor of Lagos State. Seyi Tinubu is a hardworking man. Seyi becoming the governor of Lagos State will make Nigerians and the nation at large to see that truly he is meant to be governor. We are living in a digital world that needs people with digital experience to handle governance; and we believe that with Seyi becoming the governor of Lagos State will create more expansion in the state. The state right now needs expansion and only people with digital experience can make that come to pass.”
“We hereby appeal to every body, all Lagosians to see Seyi beyond being the ‘President’s son. The Nigerian constitution does not ban him from contesting. Therefore, we want the people of this country, especially Lagosians to see Seyi Tinubu’s credibility beyond his father being the president. “
