Isaac Fayose Names Regions Where Peter Obi Leads, Urges Atiku and Makinde to Consider Concession

In a video posted on his official Facebook page on Sunday, socio-political commentator Isaac Fayose claimed that the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, enjoys a lead in the South-South, South-East, and North-Central regions. Fayose’s assertions come as the 2027 presidential race heats up. According to the Daily Post, Fayose appealed to Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), and Seyi Makinde, the governor of Oyo State and candidate of the Labour Party (LP), to step down if they are unable to compete effectively in these regions. Daily Post did not attribute any direct quotes to Fayose in its reporting, and the NDC, PDP, and LP have not responded to the claims.
