Human rights activist, Aisha Yesufu, has revealed that her experience in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has given her insights no formal education in political science could offer.
The co-convener of the BringBackOurGirls Movement shared this in a statement via her verified X account on Saturday.
Yesufu, who joined the ADC on December 31, 2025, following the defection of former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, said her time in the party has been deeply impactful.
“The things I am learning just by being a registered member of ADC, no political science degree would have taught me those things and I love it.
“Political parties are where the real power brokering takes place. Joining ADC is the best decision I have ever made,” she said.
She had earlier urged opposition figures, including Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar, to adopt more practical campaign approaches that directly address the economic realities facing Nigerians ahead of the 2027 elections.
According to her, the rising level of poverty has shifted citizens’ priorities toward survival, making immediate economic relief more compelling than political messaging.
