I did little Mathematics and discovered that Buhari was 46 when he married Aisha in 1989, and she was 18 then. That means our presido elect is almost a paedophile (just one year by chance, because am sure he is lucky to escape marrying her at 17).
If I may ask, what makes it illegal to marry a 17 year old girl but makes it legal @ 18. I guess your colonial masters makes it illegal, right? Again, how old was Mary when she gave birth to Jesus? U may need to ask your pastor for the answer.

Anything that directly or indirectly discredits PRESIDENT JONATHAN finds its way to the front page on Nairaland.com

Achievements of my brother so when you begin to enjoy constant power supply you will not attribute to the illiterate incoming President. All the power plants built by President Jonathan has been handed over to good hands like Sahara Power, GE and others. In less than on year power will improve significantly. For the record it was not Buhari.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Agriculture and local production has also significantly improved and its looking up
For the record it was not Buhari.

For those who have not travelled by roads in a long time 65% of federal roads are now in far better condition and mobilisation has been paid for many others.
For the record it was not Buhari.

Patience Faka Jonathan will be forever remembered as a strong woman. Even though she was uncouth in speech severally, she held her fort and her husband's.

She did what most Nigerian women cannot do, she defended her territory ruthlessly, even compromising a state governor in the process.

If Goodluck Jonathan was half the man Faka is, he would have still been president today
The last tym I checked, he's still da president until may 29.

Abuja (AFP) - "Few would have believed that the taciturn, austere General Buhari had a soft, smiling and sweet woman at home," the Vanguard daily said after the former military ruler was elected Nigeria's next president.

Aisha Buhari remained in the shadows for most of the election campaign but could now impose a very different style from the current First Lady at the presidential villa Aso Rock in Abuja.

Little is known for now about the First Lady elect other than a few details in the Nigerian media: she is 44, married her 72-year-old husband in 1989 after he divorced his first wife the previous year, and they have five children together.

"I met Aisha Buhari three times, and she seems to be a very humble person, very friendly and a good listener," said lawyer Ebere Ifendu, head of the Women in Politics Forum group in Abuja.

The current First Lady, Patience Jonathan, wife of the outgoing president Goodluck Jonathan, has a very different public profile.

She is well-known to journalists and mimicked by comedians for her boisterous public appearances as well as political and financial scandals.

"Patience has been like a bull in a china shop. No control whatsoever," said Yemisi Ransome-Kuti, head of the Nigeria Network of NGOs.


"We are very hopeful that we will have a very different First Lady, who will bring calm and harmony at the presidency."

- Calm and relief -

In the large house in a residential area of Abuja where her husband Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) was watching election results come in, Aisha Buhari's calm demeanour contrasted with the tumultuous scenes outside.

The official vote count was under way and the electoral commission was drip-feeding results for the presidential election state by state until Buhari took an unassailable lead.

The APC high command announced victory for their candidate and the news spread around the country, sparking scenes of jubilation, notably in the north's biggest city, Kano.

Dressed in a cream-coloured tunic and an orange and pink embroidered headscarf, Aisha Buhari seemed calm and also relieved, despite the magnitude of what had just happened and what was to come.

"The long journey has come to an end," she told AFP, referring to the election campaign.

But she admitted to "mixed feelings" about the campaign, a low-key reference to the low blows and personal attacks aimed at her husband from the ruling party.

Jonathan's Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) accused Buhari, a northern Muslim, of supporting radical Islam, of failing to secure his secondary school certificate and even having terminal cancer.

Aisha Buhari preferred instead to talk about the positive aspects of the rollercoaster ride that had led Nigeria to its first democratic transfer of power between parties at the ballot box.

Nigeria had nothing to fear from her husband, she said.

"I know him personally. Not as a leader of Nigeria. I know him as my husband and I think Nigeria should feel comfortable with him. He will get there," she added.

- 'Mama Peace' -

Patience Jonathan for her part tended to add fuel to the flames during the campaign, going as far as urging PDP supporters to "stone" anyone shouting "change" -- the APC campaign slogan.

The comments sparked outrage in the APC and led to a furious debate in the Nigerian media.

Patience Jonathan -- who styled herself "Mama peace" -- is used to media scandals.

Even before the election of her husband as head of state in 2011, she was suspected by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in 2006 of having laundered a vast sum of money.

In 2012, she became "permanent secretary" of the oil-producing southern state of Bayelsa, where Goodluck Jonathan is from and was a former governor.

The opposition heavily criticised the appointment, decrying "nepotism" and "favouritism".

She also attracted the ire of civil society when in the aftermath of the mass kidnapping of more than 200 schoolgirls in April last year, one of the leaders of the "Bring Back Our Girls" movement was arrested after meeting the First Lady at the presidential villa.

"Maybe she misunderstood her role as the First Lady," suggested Ifendu.

"There's no official role for the First Lady in Nigeria. It's not in the constitution," added Ransome-Kuti.

Instead, it often depends on what weight the president gives it.

"What we are hoping for is more decorum from the office of the First Lady," she said.

it is too early to start presicting. As someone rightly said power is a true judge of xharacter. After her twnure we can now tell whether she is different from her uncouth predecessor

Really? Looks like you, you have "bachelor of lies degree from satan university, aso rock, abuja. grin grin
Bros, you have a rare talent in lying and deception. Well, here's something for your information...
"Aisha is a very educated person. She graduated from the famous Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, where she earned a Bachelors degree in Public administration. She also has a post-graduate diploma in cosmetology and beauty, which she got in the Academy Esthetique Beauty Institute of France. Also she is an alumnus of the famous Carlton Institute of London. Mrs Buhari is currently a graduate student of International Affairs and strategic planning." Now, this information is on the internet! Next time people like you decide to spread their satanic lies and mischief, remember that some of us are too enlightened and educated to be fooled. Here: (1) Her data is on the internet...google is in the house! (2) The schools she attended, there are people here who also attended those schools+some have friends and know people who also attended those schools, including some that were there with her+you can go and find out from those schools if she really schooled there and stop your satanic lies.
NB: To imagine that some people even liked and shared your "lie lie" comment! Well, I'm sorry for them!
