Aisha Yesufu raises alarm over pressure on Peter Obi ahead of 2027

Political activist Aisha Yesufu has raised concerns over the growing political pressure facing Peter Obi, suggesting that his rising influence ahead of the 2027 general election is making political opponents uncomfortable.

In a statement shared on her official X account on Saturday, Yesufu said the All Progressives Congress (APC) appeared increasingly concerned about Obi's growing political influence.

She argued that the current political developments suggest that election rigging may no longer be an easy option, adding that political opponents could be turning to smear campaigns to weaken him.

Yesufu also pointed to Obi's growing influence in the New Democratic Congress (NDC), suggesting that the development has attracted attention from other political parties.

She maintained that the challenges facing Obi reflect the growing political tension surrounding the 2027 general election.
