Ayisha Osori, writer, lawyer and advocate for social justice, ran for the People’s Democratic Party’s ticket to the House of Representatives in 2015 and lost. This is her story. Written in Ayisha’s trademarked accessible and empathetic style, Love Does Not Win Elections, lays out this story, heart-breaking in parts, laugh-out-loud funny in others, and shows that it is not a journey too far, that other young people can take the plunge and take the leadership that should be theirs.
