Aisha Yesufu, the co-founder of #BringBackOurGirls Movement, is being attacked by tweeps over the failure of the Labour Party candidate in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, to publicly detail how he spent his campaign donations.
Socio-political analyst, Kelvin Odanz called out Yesufu, a strong supporter of Labour Party and Obi over her tweet on the alleged rigging of the 2023 presidential election in favour of President Bola Tinubu and subsequent calls on opposition to withdraw their cases and support him.
Orange wrote: “Hope you all can see with your own korokoro eyes that All Progressives Congress (APC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are the same. From their politicians to their sycophants.
“You don’t have to believe what I said about both in 2021. See it for yourselves. They are both oxygen wasting, transactional mindsets people!”.
Odanz, however, knocked Yesufu that: “Aisha, the Peter Obi you campaigned for was in PDP for 8 YEARS, leaving just 3 days to 2022 Primaries. Datti-Yusuf is Ex APC/PDP. Your DG Doyin Okupe is Ex PDP. PAT Utomi is Ex APC”.
“You spent the entire campaign period begging for donations but forgot to beg God for sense and shame”.
Yesufu on her own part replied, “Normally you beg for what you don’t have”.
“While you are at it also beg for courage, integrity and consistency. That way you don’t need to take flight like a coward at the first hint of heat.”
The matter which started between Yesufu and Odanz has turned into gbos-gbas attacks and tweets between the duo, with ‘Hushpuppi in Hijab’ trending on the microblogging site, Twitter on Sunday after the latter used it to describe the former.
Ayodeji. S. Akerele, a supporter of President Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), attacked Yesufu, querying: “When are you accounting for the money you raised from Nigerians?”
“Its okay to raise money through crowd funding but you must account for how it was spent. That’s the right thing to do.”
Yesufu however responded with: “Let me repeat what I had said, the rule of law means no one is above the law. Tinubu’s forgery and rigging are too dire for Nigeria to simply move on.
“What moral justification would we have to speak on forgery with a forger fraudulently occupying the number one political office?”
A Nigerian socialite and internet sensation, Ramon Abbas, better known as Hushpuppi is an international fraudster serving jail term in the United States.
In November 2022, Hushpuppi was sentenced to 11 years and three months in jail by the US Central District Court in California over fraud and money laundering.
He will however spend only nine years in prison as he had already spent two years in prison in the US.
Hushpuppi was in June 2020 arrested in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, over an extensive fraud scheme that has robbed victims of their money in the United Kingdom, US, Qatar, and other places.
He was extracted to the US where he was charged with fraud and money laundering.
