AISHA BUHARI: Despite Living In Aso Rock, I Feed My Children With My Personal M by alawi5k: 6:54am On Jan 07, 2017
Aisha, wife of President Muhammadu
Buhari has claimed that she feeds her
children with her personal money.
She said that the State House, Abuja
catered for her welfare only when it was
necessary.
According to Aisha, she had not been
accorded the official privileges given to
her predecessors as the Fist Lady of the
country.
Mrs. Buhari’s claims, contained in a
rejoinder by her media aide, Adebisi Ajayi
on Friday were consequent upon
accusation of abuse of privileges at
Nigerian High Commission in London
leveled against her by Sahara Reporters,
an online media apparently on her trip to
the United Kingdom recently.
Mrs. Buhari therefore challenged the
online reporters to show evidence of their
report to disproof her claims.
The rejoinder read thus: “The attention of
the Wife of the President, Hajia Aisha
Buhari has been drawn to a report in
Sahara Reporters where, she was
amongst other things accused of abuse of
privileges at Nigerian High Commission in
London.
“It is not in her interest to join issues with
anyone or defend others mentioned in
the report, it is however paramount to
put the record in proper perspectives as
its concern her trips to UK vis-à-vis the
Nigerian High Commission in London.
“Aisha Buhari has never traveled to
London with a large entourage as was
carried in the report. The highest number
of people on a trip involves her three kids,
ADC, and her personal physician.
“The Nigerian Commission in London has
never offered any favor either monetarily
or materially to her or her so called
entourage on any of her trips to London.
“The state house in Abuja caters for her
meal when necessary, and other healthy
food or variety needed by her children
are her personal responsibility.
“It is on record that the Nigerian
Commission in London does not receive
Aisha Buhari at the airport with any
official distinction or privileges as was
accorded other first ladies before her
“Her drivers are privately arranged
without any recourse to the embassy for
staff.
“She has never complained or raised dust
about any of these acts by the High
Commission because of the
understanding, as clearly spelt out and
practiced by her husband, that public
office must be separated from the private
lives of the occupants.
“She has always been an advocate of good
governance where officials of government
are responsive and appealing to their
constituents, it therefore baffles the
imagination that one could believe she
would corroborate with any government
official however highly placed either at
home or abroad to shortchange the
Nigerian people.
“These records are not hidden for a non-
mischievous reporter who really intends
to inform the people and not to disparage
the family of the President just to add
weight to a report.
“Aisha Buhari would have ignored this,
like all of such baseless accusations, but
the angle to which the report was
presented has a corruption and abuse of
privileges connotation which negates the
fundamental principle upon which this
administration thrives.
“Consequently, Sahara reporter or any of
the embassy staff is hereby challenged to
provide any concrete evidence either in
hard or soft copy to contradict Aisha’s
Buhari’s position as it concerns her trips
to London.
