After Public Fallout, Isaac Fayose Reunites With Peter Obi, Declares Him 'Incoming President'
Peter Obi pays Isaac Fayose a visit Isaac Fayose, businessman and younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, has publicly renewed his support for Peter Obi, describing the former Labour Party presidential candidate as Nigeria's "incoming president." Fayose made the declaration after Obi paid him a condolence visit in Abuja following the death of a family member. The endorsement marks a dramatic turnaround after months of public criticism, during which Fayose questioned Obi's political decisions and at one point cast doubt on his chances in the 2027 presidential election. Speaking after the meeting, Fayose declared that he and Obi were now united, expressing confidence that they were on the path to victory. The development has attracted widespread attention on social media, with many describing it as another example of Nigeria's rapidly shifting political alliances ahead of the 2027 elections.
