AISHA BUHARI: My husband's appointees never voted for him

 The wife of the President Aisha Buhari, has said that her husband is surrounded by people who are reaping from where they did not sow.

In an interview with the Hausa Service of the British Broadcasting Service (BBC) which was partially aired Tuesday morning, Mrs Buhari said:

"This worries us a lot now. Because they believe they are the ones who suffered, but are nowhere today. Those who didn't do anything who don't even have voter's card are the ones in position, doing everything."

Asked whether the President knows those causing the problems for his government, she said: "Whether he knows or he doesn't know, those who voted for him know. There is nothing I will tell him. He can see. Among all the people he selected, if he is asked among 50 people, he doesn't know 45. I don't know them despite staying with him for 25 years."

The first lady said those behind the crisis felt aggrieved that they laboured for, and helped the APC to power in 2015, but received no compensation.

"They are doing that because they felt have laboured for the party and deserved to be compensated," Mrs. Buhari said. "People who do not have voters card are those who are given appointments and enjoying the government."

When asked whether her husband planned to run for a second term in 2019, Mrs. Buhari said she did not know. But said for her personally, "I have made up my mind about that".
