Seyi and Yinka to travel with Tinubu to Qatar
Presidency aide defends Tinubu’s sons travelling with the president to Qatar.
“From the public image and diplomacy angle, bringing family members can soften a leader’s public image and aid in diplomatic relations by showcasing a relatable, family-oriented side.
“For some leaders, taking their children on such trips is a way of educating them about world affairs and different cultures. Others do it to maintain some semblance of family life, despite the demands of public office, and for security considerations.
