I will hold Obi accountable – Aisha Yesufu

 

Social activist, Aisha Yesufu, has said that she will hold the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, accountable if he emerges in the 2023 presidential election.

The presidential campaign of the Labour Party’s standard bearer, Peter Obi, has been flagged in Nasarawa State.

Present with Obi on the campaign ground are his running mate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, Yesufu, and the LP National Chairman, Julius Abure, among other party chieftains.

Speaking on the campaign ground on Saturday, Yesufu said, “…2023 election is an election for survival…we are not only voting for ourselves, we are also voting for our children and our grandchildren, and the generation yet to come, we want Mr Peter Obi to be in office, I will hold him accountable, we’ll ensure he works for the people…”

Speaking earlier, Obi decried Nigeria not qualifying for World Cup, saying his administration, if elected, would invest money in sports.

“A country of 200 million people, we did not qualify for World Cup? …We will put money in sports, the youths will have goals, we will go to World Cup one way. How can they play World Cup without Nigeria?” Obi queried.

“We will give you back your job, we will give you back your country. You will be proud of Nigeria,” he also said earlier.
