How My Trip To U.S. Is Funded — Aisha Buhari by Alfaab: 1:10pm On Aug 06, 2016
Aisha, the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, on Saturday said her ongoing trip to the United States was not being funded with public funds.

Speaking in an interview with the Hausa service of the Voice of America, Mrs. Buhari said the trip was being funded with personal funds and sponsorship grant.

“We sponsored even the government officials that came with us on this trip,” she said.

The president’s wife explained that the Muhammadu Buhari’s administration was not funding her office and that her role was just a supportive one to complement her husband’s services to the country.

Mrs. Buhari said the office of First Lady had become a tradition in almost all nations of the world, not just Nigeria.

“All that we are doing is to help our husbands,” she said.

“For instance someone can decide to give me Indomie or Maggie, which he cannot give to the president, women need these things.

“In any state where a governor’s wife is irrelevant such as Yobe, you will notice that the women are suffering.

“Whenever we get such gifts, we don’t keep them but share to those in need.”

The president’s wife also explained that the Nigerian government had put in place a special programme to help women.

She said she held a meeting with the Minister of Women Affairs, Aisha Alhassan, before embarking on her U.S. trip on how to sensitize women on ways of taking advantage of the new policy.

“Very soon our women will get help,” she said.

Mrs. Buhari also responded to a question on why Nigerians are suffering at this time.

“This may be because of the existence of the Treasury Single Account, TSA, and the activities of Boko Haram which prevented people from farming last season,” she said.
