‘We won’t tolerate such’ – City Boy Movement sacks Oyo coordinator for insulting Tinubu, son
The City Boy Movement has sacked its Oyo State Coordinator, Ahmed Ajibola, for allegedly insulting President Bola Tinubu, Seyi Tinubu and the leadership of the movement.
This is contained in a statement by the movement’s Director-General, Francis Shoga, on Thursday.
According to the statement, Ajibola’s removal came barely two months after he was issued a formal notice to respond to several allegations contained in a petition submitted against him.
“On the 2nd of June, 2026, a notice signed by the Director-General of the City Boy Movement, Hon. Francis Oluwatosin Shoga, Ajibola was accused of making abusive, insulting and derogatory remarks against the national leadership of the Movement, including the Director-General,” the statement said.
It added that the petition also alleged that the sacked coordinator made offensive comments concerning the Movement’s Patron, Seyi Tinubu and directed derogatory remarks at President Bola Tinubu.
The statement further said that he engaged in acts of insubordination and disrespect towards constituted authority.
According to the statement, Ajibola also challenged a leader of the movement in the state to a physical confrontation and engaged in conduct capable of bringing the image and reputation of the City Boy Movement into disrepute.
“The Movement had directed Ajibola to submit a written defence within 48 hours, warning that failure to provide a satisfactory response could result in further disciplinary action,” it added.

A Chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Buba Galadima, has said that Nigerians must come together and vote out president Bola Tinubu.
This was as he alleged that Tinubu is making things difficult for other political parties to produce candidates ahead of the 2027 general elections.
He spoke during the inauguration of the NDC National Reconciliation Committee set up to resolve post-primary election disputes ahead of the 2027 general elections.
He further stated that the Electoral Act was designed and perfected by President Tinubu even before it was taken to the National Assembly.
“Tinubu is only protecting himself and the APC and making it difficult for other parties to produce candidates.
“The president is not thinking of a contest with anybody, but we won’t allow it. Even if it’s an empty coffin, all Nigerians must come together and throw him out for the sake of this country,” he said.

A chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Buba Galadima, has disclosed why Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, does not want to join the NDC ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Speaking at the inauguration of the reconciliation committee of the NDC, Galadima said the governor was advised not to move to a party with a strong presidential candidate.
He, however, said the governor is sitting on the political fence, stressing that he may work for the NDC or President Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
“President Tinubu has 34 and a half governors. The only governor that is not with him is Seyi Makinde of Oyo State. Alex Otti of Abia State is there. Forget about that.
“The half is Governor Bala Mohammed. We met with him until 3am, and he was supposed to defect the next day, but he called us in the morning saying he has changed his mind because he was advised not to move to a party with a strong presidential candidate.
“Bala Mohammed is on the fence. He may work with us, or he may work with President Tinubu,” he said.
