Activist Aisha Yesufu has called on supporters of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) and followers of its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to direct their attention fully to the goal of winning the 2027 presidential election.
She made the appeal on Thursday in a message shared on her X account, where she told supporters that discussions should now centre on efforts to secure victory for Obi in the coming election and ensure he is sworn in as president.
Yesufu advised that any conversation not connected to the 2027 presidential election and strategies to achieve Obi’s victory should be ignored for now. She said supporters should remain focused on the main political objective and avoid distractions until after the general election.
She added that after the election, there would be time to respond to other issues if necessary, but for the moment attention should remain on building momentum for the presidential contest.
Yesufu is known as a strong supporter of Peter Obi and had previously participated in the NDC primaries for the Federal Capital Territory senatorial ticket, where she was not successful.
