Wike vs Aisha Yesufu: War of Words Erupts After NDC Senate Ticket Drama
A fresh political showdown has erupted between FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and activist-turned-politician Aisha Yesufu following her failed bid for the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) FCT senatorial ticket.
Speaking at a political event in Rivers State, Wike mocked Yesufu, arguing that social media influence does not automatically translate into electoral success. He pointed to her inability to secure the NDC ticket as evidence that real politics requires more than online popularity.
Yesufu fired back on X, daring Wike to mention her name directly and reminding him of his defeat in the 2022 PDP presidential primary. She also accused the former Rivers governor of lacking the moral authority to question her political credentials.
