NDC Senatorial Primary Was Decided In Closed Room, Not By FCT Delegates – Aisha Yesufu Alleges Manipulation

The activist, however, disclosed that she would not challenge the outcome of the exercise in court despite what she described as a deeply flawed process.

Human rights activist and former Federal Capital Territory senatorial aspirant under the National Democratic Coalition (NDC), Aisha Yesufu, has alleged that the party's primary election in Abuja was manipulated and predetermined, claiming that the process was ultimately decided behind closed doors rather than through a transparent democratic contest.

In a statement titled "On the Record: NDC Primaries... A Better Abuja Is Inevitable," Yesufu dismissed suggestions that she withdrew from the race, insisting that she remained in the contest until the end.

"I did not quit, I did not drop out of the race. I stayed to the end," she said.
