why are Nigerians making issues out of these is Aisha a politician?, must she know all the appointee of the president? Aisha statement shows a frustrated wife who want to be in the know but was shut out by a man who neither share or joke with state matter unlike her predecessor who force herself into the corridor of power and became more influential than her husband however President Buhari as made it clear "i am well inform" off course he should be well inform than her saying it is only those who help the president into that should be his appointees only is a misconception because Nigeria is for all, had the president done this Nigerians will still label him all sort of names and unwanted titles for heaven sake what did Aisha want? just as the president said her primary role is in the kitchen living room and the other room even if she is working. |

'She belongs to my kitchen and other room' wasn't a derogatory statement. Scripturally and culturally, women are the custodians of men's properties. The hypocrisy of the western world shouldn't restructure our encephalon from embracing and accepting truth. 1 Like |

She is trying to use the public against her husband. She should have known Buhari's pedigree. Buhari said it time without numbers that he does not want office of the first lady. She feels irrelevant unlike Patience who was teleguiding her husband. She pretends to be talking for the masses that voted Buhari but she is talkimg for herself. She has noticed that what she discusses with Bubu does not see the light of he day and this frustrates her. Now Nigerians are fighting for her. okay o lets see who will change Buhari at this his age. He has repeated what he earlier said for those who said it was a joke. BuBu all the way. Lastly, what do nigerians really want? 1 Like |

I can only blame Babaginda for this! There should have never been anything like the office of the first lady. This office has allowed a lot of things to get out of hand including the misuse and outright corruption of the nation's budget. This was overwhelmingly evident with the previous administration! While it is easy to criticize Buhari for making such a statement on the world's stage, we must also understand where he is coming from. Most of us would feel insulted if our wives started telling people outside about what goes on internally, this is where the president's statement can be forgiven. What the president meant is that Aisha's main responsibility is to the home and any other thing is secondary! 1 Like |

I praised Aisha Buhari in her campaign to save Nigeria from the hands of a few selfish individuals because Mr. President is currently surrounded by sycophants, political gold-diggers, and political jobbers. As noted, some individuals in his cabinet and decision-making positions are under-qualified, incompetent, and lack substance. These individuals do not add any value to the social and economic development of the nation. In addition, most of Mr.President’s cabinet members got their position based on nepotism, tribal or religious sentiments and not by merit. This is why things are getting worse socially and economically by the day. GEJ's administration was more honorable than this current deranged administration.World class professionals were involved and a PHD holder marshaled out the plans that made Nigeria's economy the best, biggest and largest in the whole of Africa and 5th biggest growing economy in the world. 2 Likes

An why are some people angry and feeling bored for quoting the President? If you want us to stop quoiting the President frequently out of context, tell him to treat his diarrhoea of the buccal cavity. |

Sometimes when I look at the way the media has ruined so many celebrities' marriage, it gives me a lot of concern on how self-destructive we've grown to become. Without saying or citing examples, we know of how some trivial issues which are supposed to be strictly personal to some celebrities have been announced on top of the roof by the Social Media and bloated beyond proportion by critics, leading to so many breakups. Many public figures have had their marriages shattered beyond repair because of those who never mind their business. Now, the lens has been zoomed on the President and his wife - two top socio-political celebrities. A simple African statement that the President made with no intention to humiliate has been taken up by the media, and it is now regarded as sexism. There's a saying that "I am responsible for what I say, but you are responsible for what you believe". Any man can literally say his wife belongs to the kitchen. It is African, but we are often times too civilized that we forget our descent. Culturally, a woman has a vital role to play in the kitchen But she isn't confined to the kitchen. A woman isn't restricted to the kitchen. More so, with all the academic qualifications Aisha Buhari has, with the women's projects she has engaged herself with hiterto, with all the international conferences she attends on behalf of the Nigerian women, with five kids who are already graduates, who no longer need someone to cater to their domestic needs, who should believe that Mrs Buhari belongs to the kitchen as her husband claimed. How often does the President himself stay at home to watch his wife pace about the kitchen cooking. What's the job of the many PhD chefs they have in the Aso Villa? While Mrs Buhari has taken the remark lightly, the Media has glamourized it - trying every means possible to make sure a mountain comes out of a hill. I've read a number comments and criticism from social media gurus, public figures amongst others. Some are saying it's sexism, some saying it's a slap on the womanhood, others are saying it's a gaff that should be reversed. The home has now been subjected to public scrutiny. So among all the issues heating up on the nation at this time kitchen or no kitchen is what we should be deliberating on. So the First Man should not have peace at home again with his First Bae because of your irrational inferences. Just so you know, if Baba is not getting a rest of mind in his house so many bad decisions that may affect the country would be made. Stop inciting two lovey-dovey against themselves. Let the matter rest. At age 56 we should know better. # GovernmentOfTheDay |

Good article but this is almost unheard of in many political circles even the more progressive Western democracies: a first lady should not get herself that much involved in Real politics... It is dangerous and very distracting! So what if she has political ambitions a la Hilary Clinton, it still does not excuse her almost un-endorsing (publicly) her husband on the issues of a second term - that should have been a private thing: she went too far with that part of her comments. What she has expressed is not new but is she expressing them as a concerned citizen or as someone who is now thinking above her station as a quasi-political actor. Some people have said that she is frustrated that some of her own choices were not favoured or that she felt ignored... If this is true, she is in danger of losing her shield and respect as the First Lady and the privileges and good that she could do with that post without being involved in dirty party/governmental politics... I am not a big fan of Buhari because he had not done or delivered much before people start hailing him - typical! However, I do agree that he is a big modern powerful Muslim man - one that has allowed his spouse to have some independence and a voice where he did not need to have accommodated such things. She was gaining independence and even prominence well before Buhari came back into government... Lastly, I do accept that Buhari was joking but it was a tasteless joke especially in front of Merkel and in front of the World's Press. What convinced me that it was a joke was the 'other room' part of the comment; that was a bit blue and dirty... 1 Like |

Or your angst is simply that a woman dared to criticize your almighty President? Btw, I am married and I do advise my husband on workplace issues and he listens because he is enlightened and values women. Now get out of here and stop quoting me. |
