Businessman Isaac Fayose rallies support for Peter Obi, describing his candidacy as a selfless effort to clean up Nigeria’s system.
Nigerian businessman and political commentator, Isaac Fayose, has stirred massive online debate following the release of a passionate video message urging citizens to unite and support former Anambra State governor Peter Obi ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
In the viral video posted across his social media handles, the vocal commentator argued that voting for Peter Obi is not a personal favor to the politician, but rather a vital sacrifice by Obi to clean up what he described as a heavily broken and corrupt system.
The viral commentary comes amid rising public debate surrounding economic conditions, land administration issues, and governance challenges facing ordinary Nigerians across the country.
Addressing his followers in direct, heartfelt language, Isaac Fayose stressed that the current political landscape requires a complete overhaul, comparing the situation to a dirty house that urgently needs a powerful vacuum cleaner to restore order and transparency.
Urging citizens to recognize the long-term impact of their political choices on future generations, Isaac Fayose stated:
“Voting Obi, you’re not doing Obi any favor, na Obi dey do Naija favor. Voting Obi at this point in our country, na Obi dey help Nigerians. Na Obi sacrifice himself say ‘no let me come and clean up this system. This system is dirty. It’s stinking’. Look at the land grabbing going on in FCT. This system is stinking. It’s dirty. We need a cleaner. We need big vacuum cleaner. Obi is the answer.”

He went on to challenge voters to take their future seriously by standing firmly together, adding:
“Do not waste your vote. Do not waste your vote. This is a chance to change your future, your children’s unborn children’s future. One day standing will change everything for you. They will know that you are serious about your life. They will know you are ready to take back your life.”
Critical of the current administration’s handling of public welfare and economic policies, Fayose argued that ordinary citizens are being left behind while key resources are given to a select few.
He reminded voters that while Peter Obi does not possess massive state wealth or political funds to match wealthy opponents who borrow billions daily, the collective willpower of the people remains the ultimate strength.
Emphasizing the true nature of Peter Obi’s political movement, Fayose concluded:
“Obi does not have shishi to give you, yes, he doesn’t have. Where will he get money to match people that are borrowing billions in dollars every day? Where will Obi get the money to match them? But you with Obi, standing together with Obi, will change a lot of things. We are not doing Obi favor of voting Obi, Obi Papa ticket. It is not a favor ticket, o. It is a liberation ticket, and it should be okay for you.”
The video has generated widespread reactions across social media, with supporters hailing his grassroots message while political critics continue to debate the dynamic ahead of 2027.
