Police have clarified that an alleged sexual assault case involving Ebunoluwa Fatoyinbo has nothing to do with a sister of Seyi Tinubu or the family of his father, Bola Tinubu, the President.
Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command made the clarification after widespread social media reports claimed Fatoyinbo is Seyi’s sister.
The reports said one Oscar Ilochi allegedly assaulted Fatoyinbo while she was exercising alone in a gym basement, prompting an investigation that included a review of CCTV footage in the facility.
FCT Police Command spokesperson Josephine Adeh confirmed that the command investigated the allegation based on a formal complaint filed by Fatoyinbo but the police have not established any familial link between Fatoyinbo and the Tinubu family.
“The FCT Police Command is aware of a circulating publication on social media alleging that the Command has commenced an investigation into a case of sexual assault involving Miss Ebunoluwa, purportedly referred to as the sister of Mr. Seyi Tinubu, son of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR,” Adeh stressed.
“The Command wishes to clarify that a formal complaint of sexual assault was indeed lodged by Miss Ebunoluwa Mitchell Fatoyinbo against one Oscar Ilochi, a resident of the Apo Legislative Quarters, Abuja.”
Adeh urged the public, including media outlets and social media users, to verify information before publication and to rely on official police channels for updates on ongoing investigations.
