busterblog - “I’m Coming for You Both” — Isaac Fayose Threatens Ayo Fayose and Wike, Mentions ₦37 Billion and ICC Action

In a bold and fiery declaration that has sent ripples through Nigeria’s political landscape, Isaac Fayose, the younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, has taken to social media to accuse his brother and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, of plotting his arrest.


The businessman and social commentator didn’t hold back, alleging that the two political heavyweights are behind moves to silence him over matters that could blow up far beyond Nigeria’s borders. In his emotional video address, Isaac claimed he is ready to return to Nigeria to “face them squarely”, declaring his intent to pursue both men legally—potentially at the International Criminal Court (ICC)—for what he described as corruption and abuse of power.


Isaac dropped a bombshell by mentioning “₦37 billion”, though he didn’t elaborate on the specific nature of the funds. However, the implication was loud and clear—allegations of financial misconduct potentially linked to both his brother and Wike. While Isaac is yet to provide documented evidence, the video has already reignited long-standing public suspicions surrounding the two men’s political dealings.

Yet, he too has been embroiled in election-related disputes and persistent whispers of financial impropriety—accusations he has often dismissed as politically motivated.


Isaac’s video is not just a personal outburst; it represents a rare and dramatic intra-family and intra-party confrontation, especially considering that all three men have strong ties to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). The confrontation also highlights a growing trend in Nigerian politics where insiders are increasingly breaking rank to expose perceived wrongdoings, often using social media to bypass institutional gatekeepers.


By invoking the International Criminal Court, Isaac is aiming to internationalize the scandal, a move that echoes similar high-profile confrontations in recent African political history where domestic justice systems are seen as compromised or slow. Whether this threat leads to legal action or fizzles out as a publicity stunt remains to be seen, but the political implications are already reverberating.


As Nigerians watch this drama unfold, one thing is clear: the battle lines have been drawn—not just between opposing political factions, but within the
