Isaac Fayose’s Wife Dies After Battle with Cancer

Isaac Fayose’s Wife Dies After Battle with Cancer.

Isaac Fayose, the younger brother of former Ekiti State governor Ayo Fayose, has announced the death of his wife. She passed away after fighting cancer for a long time.

He took to his social media pages to break the news. Alongside pictures of himself and his late wife, he wrote a short but emotional message that left many of his followers heartbroken.

“Rest in peace my darling wife, odabo oyinbo mi,” he said. The Yoruba phrase “odabo oyinbo mi” loosely translates to “goodbye, my white woman” – a term of endearment commonly used by Yoruba speakers for a beloved wife or female partner.

The post did not include details about when or where she died, nor did Isaac mention the exact type of cancer she had been diagnosed with. But friends and family members who reacted to the news confirmed that she had been unwell for a while, and the family had been hoping for recovery.

Isaac is not as heavily involved in politics as his older brother Ayo Fayose, but he has a following on social media where he often shares personal updates, family moments, and opinions on current affairs. His followers quickly flooded the comment section with condolence messages, prayers, and words of comfort.

Several celebrities, political associates, and ordinary Nigerians also sent in their sympathies. Many urged Isaac to stay strong and take heart during this difficult period.

The Fayose family has not yet released an official statement regarding funeral arrangements. However, sources close to the family say plans are already being made to give the deceased a proper burial according to her beliefs and family tradition.

Losing a spouse to any illness is never easy, but cancer especially has become a source of grief for many Nigerian families. Isaac’s loss adds to a growing list of public figures who have watched loved ones die from the disease.

For now, Isaac appears to be taking time away from public engagements. His last few posts before the announcement were cheerful and family-oriented, making the sudden news even more painful for those who follow him online.
