According to a report by Leadership, on Sunday April 26, 2026, Isaac Fayose, a Nigerian businessman and brother of former Ekiti State governor Ayo Fayose, has reacted to the recent visit of former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to Ibadan, Oyo State.
The visit, which happened on Saturday, attracted attention across social media and political circles, Fayose used the opportunity to criticise Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Igboho, over his earlier comments about Obi and suggested that Igboho had previously opposed Obi’s visit to the city but was now proven wrong by the large turnout and warm reception Obi received in Ibadan.
