Aisha Yesufu, a well-known Nigerian activist and strong supporter of good governance, has expressed her disapproval of any political arrangement that would make Peter Obi a vice-presidential candidate in the 2027 general elections.
In a recent interview and a series of posts on social media, Yesufu voiced her strong belief that Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, should contest again for the presidency and not settle for a lesser role. She emphasized that Nigerians are looking for a leader with integrity, vision, and a proven track record of accountability — qualities she believes Obi embodies.
“Yes, I support Peter Obi. But make no mistake, it is *President* or nothing. We cannot afford to compromise again in 2027. We’ve seen what he can do,” she stated firmly.
Yesufu’s statement has sparked conversations among political observers and Obi’s supporters, many of whom echo her sentiments. Some believe that accepting a vice-presidential position would diminish the momentum of the movement that supported Obi in 2023.
As political calculations and alliances begin forming ahead of 2027, the question of Peter Obi’s role continues to stir debate. But one thing remains clear — voices like Aisha Yesufu’s will continue to shape public opinion and influence the direction of opposition politics in Nigeria.
