Buhari Group Says It’s Not True Aisha Didn’t See Husband During Recent London Trip

Contrary to insinuations in some quarters, the Buhari Media Support Group, BMSG, on Thursday asserted that wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, did see her husband during her recent visit to London.

The group stated this in a statement signed by its chairman, Mr. Austin Braimoh; and Secretary, Mr. Cassidy Madueke, in Abuja.

It said that the speculation that Aisha did not see the ailing President was “a tissue of lies aimed at ridiculing the President, his office, wife and officials working with him”.

BMSG said, “The attack on the first family had got personal;” adding that “the visit of the president’s wife was a family affair.”

According to the group, “The president’s wife even came home with the cheering news that her husband’s health has improved and that Nigerians should keep praying for his full recovery.”

It maintained that the Presidency remained one, as evidenced by the freehand given to the Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, to run the country while the President is away.

“The claim that a cabal or a few officials working for Buhari is holding the presidency to ransom is far from the truth,’’ BMSG stressed.
