Prominent Nigerian activist and chieftain of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), Aisha Yesufu, has expressed strong irritation over Peter Obi’s recent Channels TV interview, describing it as repetitive and a waste of time.
Yesufu reacted to the Sunday interview conducted by Seun Akinbaloye with Obi, the NDC’s 2027 presidential candidate.
In the session, Obi addressed various national issues and his political ambitions, but clips circulating on social media drew mixed responses.
In a video posted on X, Yesufu said she felt frustrated because the conversation offered nothing new. “I absolutely feel irritated by the whole thing,” she stated.
“Usually when Peter Obi grants an interview, there is this excitement about what he is going to say. For this particular one, and maybe going forward, it is the feeling of irritation because what are we doing here? It is the same conversation every time. There is nothing he said that has not been talked about.”
She added that after reviewing the interview, she could not find any fresh questions or insights worth discussing.
“I would have picked one or two things from the interview so we could talk about them, but I have been going through it and I have not seen any new questions or questions that we don’t already know the answers to. We wasted our time.”
Yesufu also criticized the uneven scrutiny faced by political figures. She noted that pressure continues to mount on Obi to address the public, while the former Lagos State governor who she accused of rigging himself into the presidency faces little accountability or tough questioning.
Her comments reflect broader fatigue among some supporters over repeated discussions on familiar topics without substantial new developments in Nigeria’s political landscape ahead of the 2027 elections.
