Human rights activist Aisha Yesufu has lashed out at the national leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Seriake Dickson, over his recent interview online.

Writing on her verified social media handle on Thursday, Yesufu said Dickson appeared to be in competition with the party's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as she responded to his interview in which he defended the party's leadership and addressed criticisms from some Obi supporters following the NDC primaries.

"You seem to be in a competition with the NDC presidential candidate. No one is challenging your leadership of the party.

"The focus should be on securing victory in the 2027 elections and addressing Nigeria's challenges.

"There is a whole battle ahead of us. Rescuing Nigeria from the current state it is in should be the main focus, not people's fragile ego!" she said.
