Aisha Yesufu, a social critic and ardent supporter of Mr. Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the previous general election, has given reasons for voting for former President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2015 election.
She disclosed that she supported the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Buhari in 2015 because of Professor Yemi Osinbajo, who was Buhari’s running mate during the election.
In a recent post on her social media platform, Aisha Yesufu stated that despite Buhari’s reputation for delegating tasks, Osinbajo ended up being powerless under his leadership.
She further expressed her opinion that in the Nigerian political landscape, a Vice President is essentially useless, likening them to a spare tire.
Aisha Yesufu said: “The reason I voted for APC in 2015 was because of Prof. Osinbajo. It still took me up to February before I finally came to terms with voting for Gen. Buhari, the same Gen. Buhari I had vowed never to support again after the 2011 riots.
“Gen Buhari is known to never work but to delegate, yet Osinbajo became a toothless collaborator.
“A Vice President is worse than a spare tyre. It is the spare tyre left at home.
“Also, I have found it interesting how some have been seeing El-Rufai as an option. That’s how GEJ canonized Buhari.”
