Businessman and social commentator Isaac Fayose has addressed the widespread reactions trailing a viral video that showed him alongside Seyi Tinubu offering prayers for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The video, which quickly circulated across social media platforms, sparked mixed reactions from Nigerians. While some questioned whether Fayose had shifted his political allegiance, others speculated that his appearance with the President’s son signaled a change in his support for the opposition.
Reacting to the controversy, Fayose dismissed the assumptions, insisting that praying for the nation’s leader does not conflict with his political beliefs.
According to him:
“I’m still Obidient despite praying for President Tinubu last night.”
His statement has since generated fresh conversations online, with many social media users debating whether political affiliation should prevent citizens from praying for those in leadership.

@Your King And Defender:”You people are really cow@rds and betrayals….so while you were with him you were not bold enough to let him know the problems you always react to on videos and you went ahead to pray for or with him for Nigeria or for the success of his father Im the incoming election? Now you are here backbiting him, f00lish man. The Hausa are right not to trust people from your side.”
