The love between a father and his daughter is impossible to replicate. Former Head of State, General Ibrahim Babangida, once recounted how fond he was of Aisha while she was growing up. What is not yet public knowledge is Aisha’s reciprocal love for her father, who had given her everything she needed to become the woman she is today.

Although it would be hard for anyone to fill the void left in the heart of the former military president by his late wife, Aisha has sacrificed so much to make it less pronounced. According to those who should know, since Gen. Babangida returned from his medical trip to Germany, Aisha has practically relocated from her base in Abuja to Minna to take good care of her father.

Since her mother’s demise, Aisha has kept her mother’s legacy alive by ensuring the survival of the Better Life for African Rural Women programme. Her activities in this regard include travelling to the nooks and crannies of rural settlements across the country to empower indigent women. She spread the scope of the organisation’s activities to cover the entire continent a few years ago after partnering with several other development agencies.
