Fayose alleges private financial support but provides no publicly verified evidence in the supplied statement
Isaac Fayose, the younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, has claimed that five governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are privately supporting the National Democratic Congress (NDC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Fayose alleged that the governors had pledged financial assistance to the opposition party’s electoral operations but would not publicly identify with the NDC because they remained members of the APC.
Claim remains unverified
The allegation has not been independently established in the information supplied for this report.
Fayose did not publicly identify the five governors in the statement provided, and no documentary evidence confirming the alleged financial commitments was cited.
The claim should therefore be treated as an allegation rather than a confirmed account of political coordination.
Political implications
Secret political alliances and cross-party support are recurring subjects of speculation during election periods. However, claims involving identifiable public officials require corroboration through direct statements, documentary evidence or reporting from multiple credible sources.
The APC governors mentioned in the allegation have not been independently confirmed as having endorsed or funded the NDC based on the available information.
The claim comes as political parties prepare for the 2027 elections and seek to attract support from elected officials, political structures and influential stakeholders.
