Aisha, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, is on her
way to London to visit her husband who is on medical
vacation.
According to a statement issued on Sunday, the
president’s wife would stop over at Addis Ababa,
Ethiopia, en route London.
“She is expected to stop over at Addis Ababa, to make
a symbolic appearance at the meeting of the
Organization of African First Ladies against HIV/AIDS
(OAFLA) on Monday 3rd July, 2017,” read the
statement signed by Suleiman Haruna, director of
information, office of the wife of the president
“She will join other members to celebrate the 15th
anniversary of the organisation and use the
opportunity to reiterate the voting rights of Nigeria in
the upcoming elections of the organisation.
“She will continue her journey to the United Kingdom
on Tuesday, 3rd July, 2017.
“She will convey to the President the best wishes of
Nigerians and their fervent prayers for his quick
recovery.”
Buhari departed the country on May 7, announcing
that only his doctors could state when he would
return.
His wife left for the UK three weeks later and returned
to the country, saying her husband was recuperating
very fast.
Six days later, an online platform reported that she
was not granted access to her husband during the visit
but the president’s wife did not confirm or deny the
report.
There has been anxiety over Buhari’s absence, with
some of his critics calling on him to resign.
