Aisha Yesufu, a rights activist, has vowed to continue supporting the presidential ambition of Labour Party, LP, candidate Peter Obi.
Yesufu said she would never support Obi to be the Imam of a mosque but to be Nigeria’s president.
She noted that Obi is the candidate who can wrestle Nigeria from those willing to keep the country down.
Posting on X, Yesufu wrote: “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.
“My focus is on my effort. I have no business quitting because the win was stolen. I am focused on how to ensure that the win is not stolen next time. Giving up is never an option. We die here.”
