Isaac Fayose Gives Bloggers 24 Hours to Delete Alleged Fake Rape Report

Isaac Fayose, younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, has issued a 24-hour ultimatum to bloggers and online platforms to remove reports alleging rape against him, describing the claims as false and threatening legal action against those responsible.

Fayose made the demand in a video shared on his verified Facebook page on Tuesday, where he denied the allegation circulating on social media.

He described the report as fabricated and accused those spreading it of attempting to damage his reputation.

The businessman warned bloggers who published the allegation without verifying the claims or obtaining supporting evidence to immediately take down the reports.

“I give you 24 hours to delete that fake rape report about me or else. The bloggers that didn’t verify the story or collect evidence before putting it on their blogs, will get their lawsuit today,” he said.

Fayose maintained that he would not allow what he described as false allegations to destroy the reputation he had built over the years.

His lawyers have also demanded that the retraction extend to social media influencers and other online platforms that reproduced or circulated the allegations.

According to the legal warning, failure to comply with the demand could lead to civil proceedings and a petition to the appropriate authorities for investigation and possible prosecution.

The dispute comes amid growing concerns over the publication and circulation of serious allegations on social media without adequate verification.

However, the underlying rape allegation, the identity of its source and any formal complaint or investigation connected to it were not established in the information available.
