Rights activist Aisha Yesufu affirmed her unwavering support for Labour Party (LP) candidate Peter Obi’s presidential ambition, emphasizing her backing for him as Nigeria’s president rather than an Imam of a mosque.

Yesufu stressed that Peter Obi possesses the capability to lift Nigeria from forces hindering its progress.

Expressing her views on X, she highlighted the essence of political alignment based on governance rather than shared religion, tribe, or gender.

In her words

“Your own’ in politics is not one you share same religion, tribe or gender with. ‘Your own’ is one who can give you good governance.”

“You see Mr Peter Obi @PeterObi, I will NEVER support him to be Imam of a mosque, but as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, he has my 100% support even if I end up being his only supporter.”

“If he wants to run a thousand times, I will support him a thousand times. I will put in the work a thousand times and more. For in him is the person I see that is willing to put in the donkey work necessary to wrestle Nigeria from the jaws of those who have held it down.”
