Activist Aisha Yesufu has come under fire from Obidients for saying that Peter Obi, presidential 0candidate of the Labour Party (LP), must state how he would tackle police brutality.
Gatekeepers News reports that Yesufu, who is a supporter of Obi, had quoted a tweet of Rinu Oduala, another activist, who asked what the LP’s candidate plan is to tackle the menace.
Two years ago, youths across the country protested against police brutality for about two weeks under the #EndSARS movement.
Following the protests, the federal government had disbanded the special anti-robbery squad (SARS) of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF).
In the tweet on Saturday, Yesufu had said the LP presidential candidate “must” provide his solutions to police brutality.
“Peter Obi MUST provide the answer on how he is going to tackle police brutality. No ifs or buts about it!,” Yesufu tweeted.
The tweet has generated alot of backlash from Obidients.
Here are some of the reactions.

Aisha Yesufu there are so many things Peter Obi needs to address, but Police brutality isn’t one of ’em cos he has already done that. U can get the answers by surfing the net. For someone who claims to be a loyalist, u are doing the work of the oppositi¤n by caus!ng confusi¤n.
@OkacheThomas said, “I agree with you @AishaYesufu and @SavvyRinu he has to but he is not the only candidate. What if he provides all the answers and doesn’t win? Someone we did not pressure wins.
As citizens let’s ask all of them it will even expose them to their followers and none will be deceived.

If a partner keep asking the other do you love me, it’s bad optics. It creates doubt. If you support a candidate, you can still ask him questions but there’s a way you ask that question. Waking up and tweeting that question is wrong. No one is perfect, not Rinu, not Obi.

Opposition are dragging him and you the supporter is here dragging him. Abeg make una free Peter Obi.
