If things continue like this, I will not campaign with my husband in 2019- Aisha Buhari
In her yet-to-be aired
interview with BBC Hausa, Mrs Aisha Buhari is quoted to have said that if
things continued the way they presently are, she will never come out to canvass
for women to vote for her husband if he decides to seek a second term. BBC
quotes her as 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."
Asked what she regarded
as the government's major achievement, she said it was to improve security in
the north-east where militant Islamist group Boko Haram has waged an insurgency
since 2009.
"No-one is
complaining about being attacked in their own homes. Thankfully everyone can
walk around freely, go to places of worship, etc. Even kids in Maiduguri have
returned to schools,"she said Aisha Buhari in the interview said people
who did not share the vision of the ruling APC, were now appointed to top posts
because of the influence a "few people" wield. "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."
Asked to name those who
had 'hijacked' her husband's government, she refused, 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."
