  "account": "Activist Aisha Yesufu has joined the \"Osun Script\" social media campaign, vowing to safeguard her vote ahead of the 2027 elections. In an X post, she shared a personalized poster indicating her commitment to protecting her vote, identifying herself as residing in the Federal Capital Territory and stating her intention to cast her ballot for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the January 16, 2027 election.\n\nExplaining the purpose of her pledge, Yesufu emphasized that she would closely monitor the voting and counting processes to ensure the integrity of her vote. She urged participants to follow her lead, declaring, \"I am Aisha Yesufu from FCT. I will vote NDC on 16 January 2027 and play the Osun Script to protect my vote: vote, stay, count, snap the result sheet.\"\n\nThe campaign encourages individuals to fill out an online form to generate personalized posters displaying their details and pledges. It also urges participants to share these graphics on social media to spread awareness about the initiative. Speaking to Nigerians, Yesufu urged them to approach the 2027 elections with a different mindset compared to the 2023 general elections, advising them to learn the Osun Script and create their own pledges. She also called for support for presidential candidates Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso, urging Nigerians to use the hashtags #YouRigWeOsunYou and #VoteNDC.\n\nThe \"Osun Script\" takes its name from the 2026 Osun State governorship election, where Adeleke defeated the All Progressives Congress candidate Bola Oyebamiji by 66,252 votes. The campaign's slogan, \"vote, stay, count, snap the result sheet,\" encourages voters to cast their ballots, remain at polling stations to observe the counting process, and photograph result sheets when permitted.",
