“I was honoured to host Hajiya Aisha Buhari, wife of former President Muhammadu Buhari, her daughter Hanan, and other family members during their visit to me in Saudi Arabia. Like me, the former First Lady and her family are in the Kingdom on a lesser hajj. -AA”.
Atiku and late Buhari were key political figures whose rivalry shaped Nigeria’s political landscape for decades, contesting against each other in different presidential elections. Despite their political differences, both men often publicly acknowledged each other’s roles in Nigeria’s democratic journey.
Like Atiku, Aisha hails from Adamawa State. (Daily Trust)
