I makes perfect sense.

Check this out. My wife is my first lady. We call my mum first lady. A car is named first lady (1992 Toyota corolla hatch back). Anything can be named or called first lady.

On the other hand only 1 woman in the whole of Nigeria is the Wife of the President who is Aisha Buhari. Dame Patience Jonathan is Wife of the former President.

See!
Both are wife of the president just that first lady can be use for other means like governor's wife or name of an independent position or post while wife of the president is used only on presidents wife
Note town union president's wife can bear the name of wife of the president

And who are you to score the response?
If it doesn't to you it could to others.
Can't you decipher my comment?
Relax young man and learn

My good man realise when you goof, do the needful, turn you brain on, turn your ego off and shvt the forrk up.

Even wole soyinka in cahoots with william shakespeare cant make sense of the rubbish you are postulating, and both wont even try to put a difference into something which is basically the same thing, when someone like you try to, you sound like someone suffering from intellectual myopia.

Better to keep mute and be thought a foo.l than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

First Lady by my own dictionary is defined as 1. The wife of a chief executive and
2. The leading woman in an art or profession.
This is contrary to what some Nairalanders claim.
Now, there is a world of difference between that and the 'wife of the President'
Simply explained,
1.' Being opportuned to be the wife of the President does not make you' First Lady '
2. As such, you are not entitled to have tax payers money allocated to you to roam the whole World aimlessly
3. You do not arrogate unnecessary powers to yourself like questioning the Principal and Staff of the school of the Chibok girls and embarrassing the Nation with your fake tears and diaris GOT OOO (NOT GOD ook)
4. I rest my case

To me,1, though both re the same but the word first lady sound official than d wife of the president. 2,I belive according to him and what I dicussed with a colleague this morning, he explained to me that the office of the first lady is funded by the govt that now, the wife of the presiden will have to fund for office herself.. I see reason with that and conclude that that will reduce govt expenses

The president is the number one citizen, while the first lady is the number one among the females which the constitution does not allow, wife of president is exactly what it is, she is and remains the wife of the president no more no less.

What is the difference between first lady and wife of the president?

[size=14pt]The difference between the FIRST LADIES of the past and the present designation which is 'WIFE OF THE PRESIDENT' is that there would no longer be any budgetary allocations to the office.

For God's sake my fellow Nigerians, what is too difficult to understand in this simple matter?.... 4 pages already gone on this thread and yet no one seems to have figured this out?

First lady is an official and formal title that draws more attention and command influence at the mention of it thereby have d capacity to intorsticate. While wife of the president is an expression of fact, an informal name attracting less attention and influence. The name, wife of the president, strip of powers reserve in the name first lady.

Re: What Is The Difference Between "First Lady" And "Wife Of The President"? by prof12(m): 10:59pm On Aug 22, 2015
Being a first lady makes a woman equivalent in power and authority to her president husband while wife of the president makes her influence in governance less
Which means no special budget to her office.
