‘Garba Shehu has destroyed my family, invaded my privacy’-Aisha Buhari
The First Lady, Aisha Buhari has accused the Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari, Garba Shehu of creating a multitude of conversation from the presidential villa, meddling within the affairs of her family, starving her of finances to run her office and messing up her marriage. Mrs. Buhari has long railed towards a effective cabal that has hijacked her husband’s presidency.
Mrs Buhari says Shehu has exceeded himself to this cabal and “supplied himself to those people as a willing tool and executioner of their antics, from the corridors of energy even to the extent of interfering with the own family affairs of the President. This should not be so.” Mrs Buhari adds that: “It is at this overdue hour that I don’t forget, regrettably, that it was the equal Garba Shehu who claimed that the authorities will not allow workplace of the First Lady to run. He was later to verify to one in every of my aides that he changed into told to mention so via Mamman Daura and no longer the President. This antic attracted the anger of Nigerian ladies. He didn’t comprehend the fact that First Lady’s workplace is a lifestyle which has come to be an organization. “Today, even with out a budget, I am in a position run my humanitarian programmes. In saner climes, Garba Shehu might have resigned straight away after going beyond his limitations and powers.” The first girl’s full announcement on the president’s spokesperson, is pasted underneath, unedited: Nigeria’s improvement is hinged at the capability of public officers to execute their mandates professionally, and to be shining examples of their diverse areas of endeavor. It isn’t always a good sign when officers deserted their duty and begin clutching at straws. As spokesperson of the President, he has the exhausting responsibility of handling the photo of the President and all of the precise works that he is executing inside the u . S . A ..
Rather than face this responsibility squarely, he has shifted his loyalty from the President to others who have no stake within the compact that the President signed with Nigerians on May 29, 2015 and 2019. To make subjects worse, Mr. Shehu has provided himself to these people as a inclined device and executioner in their antics, from the corridors of electricity even to the extent of interfering with the circle of relatives affairs of the President. This ought to now not be so. The blatant meddling in the affairs of a First Lady of a rustic is a continuation of the prodigal moves of those that he serves. We all recall that the leader proponent appropriated to himself and his circle of relatives part of the Presidential Villa, wherein he stayed for nearly four years and when the time got here for him to leave, he orchestrated and invaded my circle of relatives’s privateness thru a video circulated by using Mamman’s Daughter, Fatima, the public become given the influence that on arrival into the country I turned into locked out of the villa via Mr. President. Garba Shehu as Villa Spokesperson, knew the reality and had the duty to set the records instantly, however due to the fact his allegiance is some other place and his loyalty out of place, he deliberately refused to clear the air and communicate for the President who appointed him within the first vicinity. Consequently, his movement has shown a entire breakdown of agree with among the First Family and him. Mr. Shehu changed into privy and a part of the plan and it’s execution and he was shocked while he realized that I had publicized my go back to Nigeria on October 12, 2019 and cleared the air on the various rumors that took over social media, a activity he become speculated to do however saved mute to motive greater confusion and instability for his Principal and his family. Garba then, vented his anger at the National Television Authority (NTA) Management insisting that the media group to my office need to be sacked. He succeeded in getting them suspended for doing their job.
I needed to intervene to save the innocent personnel from losing their means of livelihood by using related to the Department of State Services (DSS) a good way to verify roles performed by way of key actors in the saga. It is at this past due hour that I remember, unluckily, that it become the identical Garba Shehu who claimed that the authorities will not permit office of the First Lady to run.
He became later to confirm to considered one of my aides that he changed into advised to say so through Mamman Daura and not the President. This antic attracted the anger of Nigerian girls. He didn’t realize the truth that First Lady’s office is a subculture which has end up an group. Today, even with out a price range, I am in a position run my humanitarian programmes. In saner climes, Garba Shehu could have resigned at once after going beyond his boundaries and powers. GARBA SHEHU NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR WILL NO LONGER BE TOLERATED. The latest of his antics became to wage a struggle on the primary own family via an orchestrated media campaign of calumny by sponsoring pseudo bills to write and defame my children and myself. Based on Garba Shehu’s erroneous experience of loyalty and incapability to live actual and loyal to at least one man or woman or institution, it has grow to be obvious that all agree with has broken down among him and my family because of the various embarrassments he has induced the Presidency and the primary circle of relatives. We all have families to keep in mind in our actions and consequently it’s far within the great hobby of all involved for Garba Shehu to take the recommendation of the authority, given to him occasionally within the first week of November, 2019.
Aisha Muhammadu Buhari First Lady,
Federal Republic of Nigeria
