TITANIC political battle may be in the offing in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja as social crusader and Bring Back Our Girls campaigner Aisha Yesufu appears decided to slog it out with Ireti Kingibe for the sole senatorial seat in the to forthcoming 2027 general election.
Although a prominent figure in the human rights community, Aisha Yesufu is not known as a politician. This is no denying the fact that she played a prominent role in the last general election where she openly supported and vigorously campaigned for the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi.
Ireti Kingibe, the present occupant of the office is also a member of the Labour Party. Although Aisha Yesufu did not indicate the platform with which she hopes to actualise her aspiration, it is expected that it will also be the Labour Party.
