Activist shakes political space with fresh party switch and ambitious Senate move.
Outspoken activist Aisha Yesufu has once again shaken Nigeria’s political landscape after announcing her defection from the ADC to the NDC — alongside a bold bid for the FCT Senate seat.
Known for her fearless advocacy and strong public voice, Yesufu’s move signals a new phase in her political journey.
Her Senate ambition is already generating buzz, with supporters praising her courage while critics question her chances in a highly competitive race.
The defection also highlights ongoing shifts within Nigeria’s opposition space, where alliances and loyalties continue to evolve rapidly.
As the race for 2027 gains momentum, Yesufu’s entry could redefine the dynamics in the FCT.
One thing is certain — she is not stepping in quietly.
