Isaac Fayose, brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, has criticised lawyer, author and social commentator Reno Omokri over his decision to accept an ambassadorial appointment under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

In a video posted on his Instagram page in the early hours of February 12, 2026, Isaac accused Omokri of lacking integrity for accepting the role despite his earlier statements about not aligning with Tinubu’s government.

The controversy followed Omokri’s interview on Channels Television with journalist Seun Okinbaloye, where he defended his decision.

During the interview, Omokri explained that his ambassadorial appointment means he is working for Nigeria as a country, not directly for President Tinubu as an individual.

He said that although he had previously rejected the idea of working directly for the president, he did not see a conflict in serving Nigeria in an official capacity.

The interviewer reminded him of his past remarks, pointing out that he had earlier suggested such involvement would go against his principles, and asked whether his new position contradicted those statements.

Omokri responded that his position had not changed, clarifying that while he could not accept certain roles because of things he had said in the past, he never stated that he would refuse to work for Nigeria.

Reacting to the interview, Isaac Fayose questioned the distinction Omokri made between serving Nigeria and working under the president, describing him as a clown.

He argued that declining to openly identify with the president while accepting an appointment within the administration shows a lack of integrity, portraying Omokri’s explanation as contradictory.

In the video, Isaac Fayose said:

“Abeg, what’s the difference between working for Nigeria and working for President Tinubu? This guy must be a clown. You are not proud to work with someone but you’re proud to work for Nigeria. Abeg, hear yourself.”

He added:

“This guy is a clown. He doesn’t have any integrity. You want to work for someone you are not proud of. Eh! Reno! Reno!! Reno!!!. Aha shame on him. You’re not pride of the man but you want the job. You want the job.”
