The First Lady, Aisha has warned her husband,
President Muhammadu Buhari that she may not
back him at the 2019 election unless he shakes up
his government.
Aisha in an interview with the BBC said, the
president does not know most of the top officials
he has appointed.
She said: “The president does not know 45 out of
50, for example, of the people he appointed and I
don’t know them either, despite being his wife of 27
years.”
“Some people are sitting down in their homes
folding their arms only for them to be called to
come and head an agency or a ministerial position.”
In the BBC interview, the First Lady refused to
name those who had hijacked the government,
saying: “You will know them if you watch
television.”
On whether the president was in charge, she said:
“That is left for the people to decide.”
Mrs Buhari also said her husband had not told her
whether he would contest the 2019 election.
“He is yet to tell me but I have decided, as his wife,
that if things continue like this up to 2019, I will
not go out and campaign again and ask any woman
to vote like I did before. I will never do it again.”
