I spent money campaigning for Obi, he never appreciated me – Isaac Fayose

Businessman and social commentator Prince Isaac Fayose criticized former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi for allegedly failing to acknowledge his financial and logistical support during the 2023 general election. Fayose claimed he personally funded Obi's campaign, provided his hotel, and participated in protests, yet received no recognition or gratitude from Obi. He contrasted this with his positive experience during a meeting with President Bola Tinubu's son, Seyi Tinubu, who reportedly showed appreciation. Fayose also accused supporters of the Obidient movement of lacking responsibility for Nigeria's political future and hinted at potential future support for Tinubu. His comments follow backlash over a video where he sang alongside Seyi Tinubu, which sparked speculation about his political alignment.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames Fayose's criticism of Obi as a legitimate grievance, emphasizing his personal sacrifices and lack of acknowledgment. It highlights his loyalty to Tinubu and his willingness to support other movements, suggesting a critique of Obi's perceived ingratitude. While not overtly partisan
