The First Lady, Aisha Buhari arrived in the United
States today and was spotted with a Hermes
Birkin handbag estimated to be worth over N40
million naira.
The Hermes Birkins 35cm Porosus Crocodile Gold
Hardware bag has however clouded the media of
what would seem to have been the original
question on the lips of every inquisitive mind,
“What Happens Now that Aisha Buhari is in the
US?”
Recall that the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele
Fayose had laid heavy claims some months ago
connecting the First lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari to the
Halliburton bribery scandal through a series of
legal documents containing a certain ‘Aisha
Buhari’ he circulated in the press.
To further back up his claims of the connection
between the First Lady and the former US
Congressman, William Jefferson bribery case,
Fayose cited instances in which the First Lady
had turned down offers to visit the United
States, adding that the move was aimed at
protecting herself from law enforcement
agencies in the country.
Fayose’s claims were however set to be tested a
few weeks after he made the allegation as the
First Lady yet again turned down an opportunity
to be present at an event in the United states.
Following the allegations, Mrs. Buhari slammed
Fayose with a law suit which she described
through her counsel as a move to show the Ekiti
State Governor that ‘nobody is above the law’
even with the benefit of an immunity clause.
However, after the long wait, she finally arrived
in US today and seems to have buried the
accusations levelled against her by the Ekiti State
Governor in her eye-catching luxury fashion
accessory.
It would suffice to say Mrs. Buhari made a
statement with her entry into the US, as if to tell
Fayose that her handbag is worth more than his
allegations.
