Even if you have access to power or you have been given some power or whatever gain you get didn't God say we should fight for justice even if against OURSELVES? pic.twitter.com/xarv6jl7TM

You praised me when i called Goodluck Ebele Jonathan incompetent, clueless and inept. You insult me for calling Muhammadu Buhari @MBuhari incompetent, clueless and inept.
Why?
PERSONAL INCLINATION?
Are we not facing the same injustice? Is it because you have access to power? pic.twitter.com/7rQNpeVxnW— Aisha Yesufu (@AishaYesufu) August 28, 2019

That the President is old enough to be my father is not the reason I should not criticise him & make demands. It is about fighting for justice & God has enjoined us to stand firm even against ourselves & our parents to fight injustice!
Why are you focused on personal inclination? pic.twitter.com/V9GwjsoGGy— Aisha Yesufu (@AishaYesufu) August 28, 2019
That the President is today a Muslim like myself is not a reason that i should not criticise and make demands on him. That i voted for the President in 2015 is not a reason i should not criticise the President.
IT SHOULD NOT BE ABOUT PERSONAL INCLINATION!
ITS ABOUT JUSTICE! pic.twitter.com/e8Ew5kgRtn— Aisha Yesufu (@AishaYesufu) August 28, 2019
No reason was given by Twitter for freezing Aisha’ s account.
Meanwhile, Mrs Oby Ezekwesili has taken to her own twitter handle @Obyezeks to retweet the announcement of the freezing of Aisha Yesufu’s account.
This is unjust @Twitter and every sensible Nigerian would tell you so. @AishaYesufu is the last person whose Voice should be shut down by Twitter. Do not unwittingly empower those who detest Citizens’ Voice that holds a government @NigeriaGov accountable. That’s all Aisha does. pic.twitter.com/AkrvyxWFOc
