She is a socio-political activist, and co-convener of the Bring Back Our Girls Movement, an advocacy group that brought attention to the abduction of over 200 girls, from a secondary school in Chibok, Nigeria, on 14 April 2014, by the terrorist group Boko Haram.

She is known as an agent of impact and a woman with immense courage. In a country, where many are too fearful to speak out against injustice and hiding under religion and cultural facades to shy away from their civic responsibility, Aisha Yesufu is has shown that such should not be the case.

In the ongoing protests to end police brutality across the country, she remains a constant reminder that genuine change is possible. \n
