Aisha and Muhammadu Buhari

Mrs. Buhari in an interview with BBC, alleged that some powerful people had taken over Buhari’s government.

The President, in what has been described as a joke by his media aide,Garba Shehu,  said the First Lady belongs to his living room and kitchen.

The group through its National Coordinator, Usman Okai Austin  said “The ‎outbursts of the president’s wife about his posture to governance is quite unfortunate and mismatch to the expectations of Nigerians and to worsen it, the response of President Buhari relegating his wife to his room and kitchen shows that Nigeria has been dragged to many centuries backward.
