I Prefer To Be Called The Wife Of The President Not First Lady - Aisha Buhari by skak(op): 12:15am On Apr 19, 2015
Read excerpts from the interview below:

You urged people not to stone anybody, why are
you taking the path of peace?

Since democracy has come to stay, we are
supposed to practise it like we practise our
religions. Our children copy from us so, we should
never preach violence. We have to play politics with
morality, integrity and with capacity, not violence.

Judging by all the bashes that the current first lady
gets from different quarters, are you in anyway
scared of taking this position?

No, I am not scared because I know my limitations
and boundaries. Once you attempt to go beyond
where you should be, you can receive all sorts of
things.

Who are those you would say inspired you as a
woman?

Every woman that can stand up for herself and on
her own, indomitable women and courageous
women, those are my role models.

What are your plans for the office of the first lady
when your husband assumes office?

First of all, as you said that the current first lady is
receiving bashes from all corners of the country.
The former first lady, late Mariam Babangida, may
her soul rest in peace, introduced the office of the
first lady, but I am beginning to think that she died
with the glory of the office. I think I will prefer to be
called the wife of the president of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria than the first lady of Nigeria.

When you start performing as the first lady, what
are those things you will have in place as your give
back to the people?

Like they normally ask me some questions about pet
projects, because some past first ladies normally
had theirs, for me, maybe I may have, but I don’t
have one now because there are a lot of problems in
the country and there are lots of women with good
ideas. If I decided to come up with one programme,
that will divert everybody’s attention and I think the
rest of the programme may not come up or may not
survive. If there are genuine projects from different
people, I will help champion the programmes rather
than me having only one pet programme.

Nothing wrong with "First Lady", Everything wrong with "Office of First Lady" and "Wife of the President". Both indicates that a woman can't become the president of Nigeria.

Negative... the aims of the initiator of the "first lady" idea has been utterly and disgracefully defeated by the current office holder... we shld probably start correcting our errors by reffering to our script.. the constitution, an ammendment to include "office of the first lady" shld be given a proper deliberation.... thumbs up to aisha for her humility... it's on point
Re: I Prefer To Be Called The Wife Of The President Not First Lady - Aisha Buhari by Nobody: 1:01am On Apr 19, 2015

Agreed, Patience is a reptile. However, my previous opinion still stands un-wavered.

You are correct. She seems to be in the mould of Stella Obasanjo or Mrs. Fashola

Whatever suits her. It's her time, she better use it wisely because she will be under intense scrutiny. That position is not for the faint hearted. Make a good impact and do your best so that history will judge you fairly

Whatever.

I sincerely hope she's not the eye-serving goody-two-shoes kind of woman.
Because I don't know what's wrong with being called a First Lady if you're one.

Rejecting the title is not a sign of humility.
Maybe she thinks it is. grin
