Fayose Challenges Obi’s Gentlemanly Approach | Nigeria News

Isaac Fayose, brother of Ekiti’s former governor, is blasting Peter Obi for what he sees as a weak response to a violent attack on Obi’s convoy in Benue—accusing him of abandoning displaced persons and fleeing the scene. Fayose argues that Nigeria’s political climate demands a tougher, more confrontational strategy, even calling for “thugs for thugs, fire for fire,” warning that Obi’s gentlemanly demeanor could cost him the 2027 election. He fears this approach may embolden other governors to exploit Obi’s perceived softness, sparking debate over whether aggression or principled leadership holds the key to electoral victory.
