“If I want, I can start campaigning for President Tinubu” – Isaac Fayose Says Amid Backlash Over Seyi Tinubu Meeting

Businessman and social commentator Isaac Fayose has stirred fresh reactions after declaring that he can withdraw his support for Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, following the backlash over his recent meeting with Seyi Tinubu.

Speaking in a viral video, Fayose questioned whether Peter Obi had ever appreciated his contributions to the 2023 campaign, claiming he spent heavily to support the former Anambra State governor.

He added that if he chose to, he could openly campaign for President Bola Tinubu, noting that he is Yoruba and has admiration for both the President and his son.

“I can withdraw my support for Peter Obi. Do you people know how much I spent on Peter Obi’s 2023 campaign? I met Seyi Tinubu and people started complaining. Has Peter Obi ever appreciated me? If I want, I can start campaigning for President Tinubu. I’m a Yoruba man, and I love President Tinubu and his son.”

His remarks have sparked widespread debate on social media, with supporters and critics sharing mixed reactions.

Obi is fucked!!!! Those IPOB guys in his camp have ruined his chances!!!!! Who wants to support an Igbo candidate in multi-ethnic country?! Until he drops that his Igbo garment and put on our GREENWHITEGREEN, he’s doomed for life!!!!

I don’t blame Isaac, another’s looking for what to eat. Peter Obi himself is a loser because he knew INEC will never announce him but he rather worked against Atiku. I pity the educated fools whom are not making money thinking INEC will announce Obi.

@patola58
This is how these foolish Obidients will lose all their supporters, they are looking for people to enslave as if Nigerians owe them something.

Yawa don gas for the marriage between Isaac Fayose and the Obidients. Two mad species don enter yam scatter scatter palaver🤣 Isaac planned all of these drama. He wanted to switch from supporting a Gbajue and leveraged the event that has led to this. Na Obi & boxers go remain in 2027.
