Aisha Yesufu’s Party Switch and FCT Senate Bid: A Three-Week Political Rollercoaster
Over three weeks, Aisha Yesufu moved from treasurer of the Obi-Datti diaspora fund in the Labour Party to deputy chair of membership in the African Democratic Congress. She then joined the NDC to pursue the FCT Senate ticket. After learning the NDC would skip the FCT Senate primaries, she reassured followers on her verified Twitter handle that she had not quit. She said she accepted a flawed outcome for party unity and would focus on the 2027 presidential race. Her announcement came amid reports of irregularities that affected other aspirants and potential petitions to the party’s appeal panel. Despite setbacks, she chose to support the party’s presidential candidate and thanked all her backers for their dedication.
