Meet all of Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Children
Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s kids from previous relationships were born before he married Oluremi
As was previously said, Bola Tinubu’s marriage to Senator Oluremi Tinubu, his present wife, produced some but not all of his children. The first three, Jide, Seyi, and Shade, were born before Tinubu’s marriage to Oluremi in 1987.
1. Kazeem Jide Tinubu
The eldest child of Bola Tinubu, Kazeem, was born on October 12, 1974.
He completed his legal studies at the University of Liverpool in the United Kingdom before moving to London, England, to complete his master’s degree in maritime law at the University of London. He was later called to the bar in 1999.
Kazeem worked in the legal department of Mobil, an organization where his father, Bola Tinubu, had been a director for several years. He also worked for several oil companies, including Cargo Maritime, Paris, France, and Ocean and Oil Services Ltd.
Although the name of his wife has not been revealed, Jide was married and had three kids.
Unfortunately, he died on October 31, 2017. His death was caused by cardiac arrest. Left to mourn him were his wife, three sons, and his family and friends.
2. Folashade Tinubu-Ojo
Folashde is the second oldest of all Tinubu’s children, and she was born on June 17, 1976. This means she is currently 48 years old.
She received her degree in economics from the Federal College of Education in Oyo State, Nigeria. She also earned a business administration degree from Middlesex University.
Shade previously married House of Representatives Member, Hon. Oyetubde Ojo, who represented Ekiti State. However, it’s reported that the pair’s marriage has been marred by several glitches, including extramarital affairs. At the moment, Shade and her husband are separated.
In the meantime, the Oba of Lagos crowned Shade Iyaloja (mother of the market) in 2013. But following her coronation, a number of disagreements and protests broke out, dividing both men and women in the market. The reason for the chaos was that her grandmother was the last Iyaloja; therefore, it seemed like her emergence was becoming a family succession. Additionally, she imposed heavy fines on traders, and this caused an outcry that was later settled by her father.

Seyi Tinubu is Peherpas, the most famous of all Bola Tinubu’s children. He was born on October 13, 1985, and he is 38 years old. Seyi is the product of his father’s relationship with Bunmi Oshonike. His mother was a former air hostess and a prophetess with the Celestial Church of Christ.
Seyi spent most of his early life in the United States and the United Kingdom. He completed his early schooling at St. Saviour’s School in Lagos State before moving to Milton Abbey School in England, where he earned his A-Levels.
Seyi later moved to Lincoln University and obtained a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in 2005. He also bagged a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) in 2010 before moving to the Nigerian Law School in 2011. He was later called to the bar in 2013.
After he was called to the bar, Seyi again returned to the University of Buckingham and bagged a Master’s Degree in corporate and commercial law.
He is currently the CEO/Chairman, of Loatsad Promomedia and also the co-founder of the Noella Foundation.
Meanwhile, Seyi is listed as one of the most sought-after media practitioners in Nigeria, and his advertising firm (Loatsan Promomeida) has completed several advertising transactions that run into billions.
He got married in 2016 to the love of his life, Layal Holm Chinwe, and the pair’s union is blessed with two kids named Tinubu Bolatito Ayyan Jidenna and a daughter named Noella.
