However, Fayose has dismissed the allegation.
In a video shared online, he said many Nigerians were too quick to form opinions without knowing the circumstances surrounding the encounter.
“I’ve been seeing a lot of Nigerians saying that I don go meet Seyi Tinubu and dey don bribe me with money,” Fayose said.
He then promised to explain how the meeting happened.
According to Fayose, the encounter was not a planned meeting arranged to exchange money or influence his views.
He insisted that no money changed hands and said the meeting happened unexpectedly at a bar.
“Seyi met me at that bar…” he stated.
The entrepreneur also criticised those who made the bribery claims, questioning their decision to draw conclusions based solely on the video.

Isaac Fayose criticises Remi Tinubu’s appeal to singers
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Isaac Fayose criticised First Lady Oluremi Tinubu’s call for Afrobeats stars like Davido, Burna Boy, and Asake to channel money spent on luxury cars into charitable foundations.
In a post on Instagram, Fayose argued that the First Lady’s appeal was misdirected, insisting that APC governors with larger budgets should be the ones funding poverty alleviation rather than entertainers.
He recalled her earlier encouragement for governors to buy exotic vehicles for APC women leaders, describing it as contradictory, while noting that artistes already contribute meaningfully to their communities.
