Prominent activist, Aisha Yesufu, has resigned from the African Democratic Congress and joined the Nigeria Democratic Congress.
She has also declared her intention to contest for the Federal Capital Territory senatorial seat in the 2027 general elections.
Yesufu disclosed this in a statement posted on her X handle on Wednesday, saying her decision followed what she described as a deeper understanding of “the future of the nation” and her continued alignment with the political direction of former presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
“The next couple of days will define the future of this nation. This deeper understanding is why I resigned from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to join the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) as I follow the leadership of HE Peter Obi, who today embodies the hope and aspiration of a Nigeria that works,” she wrote.
