Omokri blasts Aisha Buhari, calls her ‘wailer’

Former Special Assistant to ex-President, Goodluck
Jonathan on News Media, Reno Omokri, has reacted to
Aisha Buhari’s BBC interview in which she warned her
husband, the President, that she may not back him at
the next presidential election unless he shakes up his
government.
Aisha had, in a recent interview with BBC, disclosed that
her husband had not told her whether he would contest
the 2019 election, saying ‘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.’
In the same interview, Aisha declared that Buhari “does
not know” most of the top officials he appointed, and
that the government had been hijacked by some persons
deciding presidential appointments.
But reacting to this, Omokri referred to the wife of the
President as a wailer. It could be recalled that the
presidency had referred to those criticizing the present
administration as ‘wailers’.
On his Face book page, he wrote: “Wow! This is
explosive! Even Buhari’s wife has turned to a wailer!
“Aisha Buhari has told the BBC what we have been
saying all these months. You need to watch/read this
interview! It is well worth your time!
“Let me just give you excerpts ‘Nigerian President
Muhammadu Buhari’s wife has warned him that she may
not back him at the next election.
“In a BBC interview, Aisha Buhari said the president
“does not know” most of the top officials he has
appointed. She suggested the government had been
hijacked, saying a “few people” were behind presidential
appointments…’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.’”
“His wife’s decision to go public with her concerns will
shock many people, but it shows the level of discontent
with the president’s leadership, says the BBC’s Naziru
Mikailu in the capital, Abuja.
“Now, will all those who have had a field day attacking
me for my criticism also attack the First Lady?” he
quizzed.
