“Your Comments Were Irresponsible” — Fayose Fires Back at Obasanjo After Birthday Remarks

Former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose has openly criticized ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo over comments made during Fayose’s 65th birthday celebration.

During the event, Obasanjo remarked that Fayose was “not his best political student,” recalling past clashes in which Fayose allegedly called him “inconsequential” and blamed him for his political setbacks. Despite this, Obasanjo noted that he had forgiven Fayose following a personal request for reconciliation.

However, Fayose did not take Obasanjo’s remarks lightly.
According to AIT’s report on Monday, November 17, 2025, Fayose sent a strongly worded message to Obasanjo shortly after the event, condemning the former president’s comments as “inappropriate and uncalled for.”

Fayose explained that he chose not to confront Obasanjo publicly at the venue to avoid creating a scene but maintained that the statements were unacceptable.

In his message, Fayose wrote:

“Dear Baba Obasanjo, I trust this meets you well. Your coming to my birthday party, I appreciate, except for your very irresponsible comments at your age.”

The exchange has further stirred political conversations, with many Nigerians reacting to the renewed tension between the two influential figures.
