AISHA DUMPS BUHARI

The former president who retired to his home in Daura, Katsina state after an uneventful eight years in office is said not to be enjoying the best of times. A family source who spoke to Cross Fire said, “”this is not the kind of lonely life in retirement that the ex-president envisaged for himself””.
The source of Buhari”s loneliness is the cold unofficial divorce served on him by the former first lady, Aisha Buhari.

The former first lady reportedly spew out expletives against her husband whom she boldly referred to as ex.
Aisha is said to be angry with the former president because of his “pretentious, deceitful and vindictive nature.” She recalled all the indignities meted on her in Aso rock by the cabal led by the former president”s cousin, Mamman Daura and nephew, Tunde Sabiu. A situation which forced her to play little or no role in the second tenure of Buhari”s presidency as she lived mostly abroad.
