“The book launch was televised to the whole world and no one announced what anyone donated. Governor Yahaya Bello did not donate 70,000,000 naira as insinuated by the people who are turning opposition politics to a comical adventure,” the statement said.

The first lady, Aisha Buhari launched her first book on Essentials of Beauty Therapy.

A book which she says is a result of extensive years of research into the subject of beauty and wellness.
