Aisha Yesufu is a fearless Nigerian political activist, known for her unapologetic stance on justice, accountability, and good governance.
Co-founder of the #BringBackOurGirls movement, she rose to national prominence in 2014 after the abduction of over 200 Chibok schoolgirls by Boko Haram.
Since then, her voice has remained a powerful force in Nigeria’s socio-political landscape, often holding those in power to account without fear or favor.
Unwavering in her convictions, Aisha Yesufu consistently speaks truth to power, challenging leaders and institutions that fail the Nigerian people.
She criticized Governor Okpebholo of Edo State, questioning his authority in a manner that reflects her deep commitment to constitutional democracy.
Speaking during an interview on Channels Television, she stated, “I don’t know what gave Gov. Okpebholo the audacity to give security clearance to any Nigerian to come to Edo State.
Edo State is not his family’s estate.”
Her statement highlights her rejection of impunity and the personalization of public office a recurring issue in Nigerian politics.
Her activism goes beyond online advocacy. She has been a visible figure at protests, such as the End SARS movement, where she stood side by side with Nigerian youth demanding an end to police brutality.
Aisha Yesufu’s courage, often symbolized by her iconic hijab and clenched fist, continues to inspire millions across the country.
