Aisha Yesuf, a Nigerian social and political activist who came to prominence for her role in speaking up for the abducted Chibok schoolgirls in 2014 has revealed ten (10) reasons why she cannot be a running mate for the Presidential flag bearer of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
According to a post to her official Twitter page @AishaYesufu, she listed these ten reasons because of those who have been asking why she has refused such a laudable offer.
Her twit reads;
For those who have been asking, here are 10 reasons I cannot be Peter Obi @PeterObi's running mate!
It's a thread!
1) I am not at a place to serve. Anything I do I do with my heart, body & soul. Until I know I can serve Nigeria with everything and be accountable I wouldn't!
2) I am from South-South, Peter Obi is South East (An all Southern ticket is insensitive just like Muslim-Muslim one)
For many who still do not know. I am from Agbede (Kukuruku empire) in Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State! 😍
My coconut head come from ancestors!
3) I am a very passionate person & unafraid to match toes on issue of Justice, accountability and human rights & there are people who love me dearly and also others who hate me passionately. At this fragile time, Peter Obi cannot afford to antagonise any group!
Perception is key!
4) So my support for Peter Obi will do more good than me being his running mate.
Those who love me will jump on board. Those who hate me will be able to overlook as I am only a supporter!
😉 (We have to think a million steps ahead)
5) I love campaigns! I can sell someone but I will not be able to sell myself.
Vote for me because I am a better candidate! Who told me I am a better candidate?! 😁
I can say vote for him or her because he or she is a better candidate.
Even in business, I can't market my goods🤷🏼♀️
6) I am not a process person & not too good with day to day management.
I am more of a strategist. I can gauge a situation & see an angle people are not looking at or focused on or I can to an extent see how a situation will play out.
I prefer working on where my strength is!
7) I will not make a good party person for now because I can not keep quiet when a party does anyhow because it is my p
8) I love the freedom of controlling my time! As a public servant, or elected official or an appointee, I will give up that freedom. I will now have to go to office daily and on time.🙆♂️
I cannot travel out when I want and stay as long as I want if I am a public servant. 🥺arty. They will suspend me for anti party activities 🤣
9) Also I will not be able to talk anyhow to people who come to my TL and do anyhow because they would be my bosses as per taxpayers!
I love my mouth too much😌
You people know i don't subscribe to the ideology of if they go low you go high!
🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️
10) The last but not the least is that I will be forced to be politically correct. Not say things that should be said but things that will make people feel good!
No way!
I am a person at peace because my outside matches my inside always.
How I feel inside is what you see outside!
Replying to Aisha Yesuf's twit, Romanus Okemefuna Ozodigbo, @ROzodigbo stated that if God helps Peter Obi to win, Aisha has a command that can uplift the nation because her mouth is a vessel while Obui is an underground worker
His twit reads;
Despite that, if God help Peter Obi to win, you have some command that can uplift the nation because your mouth is a vessel and Obi is an underground worker, I don't know the plan of God but you are the right person for me oooo, if the party will not feel bad also, well God bless
