Nigeria’s First Lady, Aisha Buhari has opened up on the internal squabbles going on within her family.
The first lady’s remarks are coming after rumours of President Buhari’s ‘marriage’ to a second wife made headlines last week coupled with the emergence of a video showing the first lady venting her anger at the family of Mamman Daura, the President’s older nephew.
Speaking on the footage, She confirmed that she was the one in the footage, adding that she reacted in that way after she was denied access to an apartment at the presidential villa by the family of Daura.
The First lady also reacted to a statement by Fatima, daughter of Daura, who said the president’s wife attacked her inside the presidential villa.
Speaking to BBC Hausa, She said Daura’s family acted the way they did because Buhari had “sacked” them from the house.
She was quoted as saying Fatima recorded the video while laughing at and mocking her.
“I was the one in that video and this person you see standing at my back are my security personnel,” the first lady was quoted to have said.
“It was Fatima, the daughter of Mamman Daura that shot the video in front of my security and everybody there. She was actually recording the whole thing right in front of me and was laughing and mocking me.
“They did that because my husband sacked them from the house. He told them to get all their belongings and leave the house for my son (Yusuf) to occupy.
“I left them and wanted to get to one of the rooms but they prevented me from getting through, I left them and took another way yet I met the store locked.”
The lies behind every shall be unclothed one day
It’s a family affairs you guys should settle it amicably
since the first lady is not willing to tell Nigerians the gospel truth concerning the death of her husband, let her continue to dance the music daura’s family are playing for her.
I hope you didn’t vext, the president is still alive and hearty!!
Let’s get real. There are more pressing issues affecting ordinary Nigerians than your family rancour. Sort out your family shameful fighting and leave Nigerians out of this shameful episode.
Generals earn their stars when they fight and win military battles. Drums are rolled out when politicians prevail over foes and village champions brag after arm locked wrestling contest against opponents.
But civil war which the Yoruba call “ogun abe ile” is a war front of a different hemisphere. There are no rules. No fair plays and no time clock. Buhari, please pick your team – your amiable, beautiful, amazon wife and her children or the Dauras, your famous and formidable linage. The cloud is darkened
This’s a breach of security for making that illegal video in the villa
This cannot happen in a developed nation. President Buhari should fire the head of SSS immediately. He must also get job for Mamma Daura with Katsina State govt. The family should vacate Aso rock. What has happened in the last few days has confirmed the rumour that the cabal are the one ruling not president. How that small girl ve addressing first lady like that.
IF @ALL THIS IS TRUE, GOD PLEASE, BE MERCIFUL TO US(NIGERIANS), PRESIDENT’s FAMILY & HIS APPOINTEES WITH THEIR FAMILIES. GUIDE OUR LEADERS RIGHT, LET THERE BE GROWTHS & DEVELOPMENTS IN JESUS NAME. AMEN. PEACE
Your husband cannot be the president and some one will be denying you the access to the presidential villa, continue carrying the heavy cross.
what always make me cofuse is, what is the actual position of this so-called daura in the villa ?
Something Is Not Clear Hear, Is De Presedent Actually Alive, It Simce He Is Not De One Governing De Country. When Did Aso Rock Become His Personal Property. Ayisha Must Come Out And Tell Nigerians De Truth And Nothing But De Truth About Weather Her Husband Is Still Alive She Will Never Gana Have Peace.
