At
the inaugural meeting of the APC women presidential campaign initiative held in
Abuja today, Saturday January 24th,2015, wife of the APC presidential
flag-bearer Hajia Aisha Buhari, reacted to her husband’s promise to scrap the
office of the first lady because it is unconstitutional and allegedly being
used to steal public fund. Below is her comment....
"When my
husband is elected as the president of this country, he will rule the country
within the rule of law based on the constitution of the country. If the office
of the first lady is constitutionally recognised, he will not tamper with it,
but if it is not that’s okay. For me, I will perform my duties and role as the
wife of the President of Nigeria traditionally. Wives of presidents have some
traditional roles, like receiving guests, visiting orphanages, helping the less
privileged people. They also lead in the fight for the right of women and
malnourished children, infant mortality rate, kidnapping and girl-child
trafficking" (NAN
