While appreciating the former president, Fayose accused Obasanjo of going so low. He added that he was not surprised by the outburst of the former president, "because someone once said you are supposed to be kept away in the zoo. Sincerely, that's where you belong."

Kehinde Akinyemi, the media assistant to Obasanjo, explained that the "thank you" message was forwarded to the former president via SMS. Fayose said he did not reply to Obasanjo at the event because he wanted "the world will know the difference between a sane and a mad man that you are."
Fayose's message further reads in part:
"It is also obvious that you have also lost your sanity, OR should I say is the heightened stage of dementia. Not to worry, Baba., I shall set the records straight in due course of time. Lastly, I shall appreciate it if you return my money since you publicly admitted you received it, but Dangote brought u back."
Obasanjo's speech at Fayose's birthday
At the birthday event, Obasan described Fayose as irresponsible, who was not well brought up. The comment of the former president generated reactions from some Nigerians. Below are some of their reactions:
Afolabi commented:
"OBJ gives speech at Fayose's birthday lool. If you like, die for these politicians. I remember the impeachment saga, the shitless chickens, state of emergency in Ekiti state, election rigging etc. It's all about their selfish interests. Don't die in their war!"

"You twisted this. “Omoluabi is different from someone who is not well brought up”
