Isaac, the younger brother of former Ekiti Governor Ayodele Fayose, has revealed that he’s ready to contribute up to forty million naira (#40, 000, 000) in support of the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, adding that he’s sure Atiku Abubakar will go back to Dubai.
The move is seen as matching his words with action after he had said Peter Obi needs at least N50bn to win the presidential candidate of the ruling party in 2023.
“Out of all the candidates, Peter Obi is the most popular. If we vote today on social media, he will win. But an election is structure-based. So, Obi will need N50bn to be able to make that government a reality. N50bn, yes, Obi will win.
“Remember, Tinubu is a little bit popular too. He has what they call structure. The structure alone is worth N50bn. He has what they call goodwill. They call him ‘The City Boy’. So ‘where him money no fit reach, him structure go reach, where him structure no fit reach, him popularity go reach.
“Peter Obi, with N50bn, will manage to buy his own army to defeat Tinubu,” Fayose said last week.
However, in a video making the rounds on social media today, Fayose said he’s ready to donate between 20-40 million naira in support of Peter Obi when the room for donations is opened.
“…campaign will start soon and if we truly love obi, we have to starr thinking of how to donate when the time comes. As for me, by the grace of God, I’m sure I will contribute up to 20, 30, 40 million. And I’m sure many of us will support.
“Whether they like it or not, Obi is coming and Atiku will go back to Dubai.”
