National Leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Seriake Dickson, says he and the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, offered Aisha Yesufu a House of Representatives ticket, but she turned it down.
Dickson made this disclosure while speaking at the party’s stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja.
This comes following the recent internal political wranglings within the party.
Recall that Yesufu in a post on her verified X handle on Thursday said Dickson seems to be fighting a war no one is waging against him.
“Now, talking about the FCT, do you know that Peter Obi and I offered Aisha Yesufu a House of Representatives ticket, but she turned it down?
“House of Representatives that people are fighting for, she said she’s too big for it,” he said.
