NDC: “You’re fighting a war no one is waging with you,” says Aisha Yesufu to Dickson.

Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, senatorial aspirant for the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Aisha Yesufu, has told the national leader of the party, Seriake Dickson, that it appears he is fighting a war that no one is waging against him.

Yesufu made the remark in a lengthy post on her verified X handle on Thursday, in response to Dickson’s interview on Wednesday night.

She said the interview was “painfully appalling to watch,” adding that he should pacify aggrieved members instead of using hurtful words toward them.

In the interview, Dickson suggested that Yesufu’s popularity on social media and her name recognition might make her reluctant to play by the rules.

Reacting to the interview, Yesufu wrote, “It seems as if you are fighting a war no one is waging with you.”

“You rather ended up antagonising the very people you would need to win election. Every vote counts! A leader must stoop to conquer!”

“Your first one‑on‑one interview after primaries and instead of selling your candidates and giving confidence to people on how to set the road to winning the 2027 election was, you made it about yourself.”

“With all due respect sir, it looks as if you consider the NDC a Special Purpose Vehicle whose aim has been achieved just by being registered instead of a Political Party whose aim is to win the 2027 General election decisively. The registration of NDC should be a means to an end and not an end in itself.”
