Reliable information reveal the troubles
bedeviling the 1st family of Nigeria maybe far
from over judging by the demeanor of the
President of the federal republic of Nigeria and
the body language instruction dished out to the
various anti-graft agencies in the country.
A highly reliable source stated that the Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission [EFCC] has
opened a comprehensive probe on the person of
the 1st lady over her interaction with the many
lobbyists looking to reach her husband for a
favor.
Source revealed that the relationship between the
1st lady and the President had so much
deteriorated to a near none existent following a
few days after the swearing-in as the President
of the federal republic of Nigeria.
Chief on the top reasons why the President
turned away from the 1st lady was her desire to
play the role of the 1st lady in the manner other
1st ladies had played – in the likes of Stella
Obasanjo, Turaki Yar’Adua and Patience
Jonathan.
Aisha Buhari wanted to have the type of influence
over her husband as the other 1st ladies before
her. She wants to influence who is appointed to
certain sensitive positions in her husband’s
administration, and to effectively control certain
aspect of the government. Source adds that she
had already become a ‘paid’ lobbyist of some
sort. “She did not waste time in collecting money
from businessmen and other people looking to
meet her husband”, said the source who added
that Buhari in the know of her money collecting
activities – that he blocked her out of his daily
activities.
“Buhari would walk in to the house from work in
the evening and he would immediately walk
upstairs to his room and lock the doors to keep
Aisha away from his room“, stated the source as
he explained the cold shoulder given to Aisha by
Mohammadu Buhari immediately he discovered
her intent to become involved in his
administration as his life partner.
According to the source, Buhari was not
comfortable with the information from friends
and associates concerning Aisha’s mingling with
politicians and businessmen who were interested
in meeting with the President. For this reason,
the President decided on avoiding
communication with his wife, the 1st lady. On
some occasion, Mohammadu Buhari had
instructed the 1st to refund the monies collected
from several sources – of which the 1st lady did
not take lightly with her husband.
“Her lifestyle needs money and power, and it is
so different from what Mohammadu Buhari can
tolerate” Information on her upbringing and
background spell extravaganza and luxurious
lifestyle. “She wants and loves money and things
money can buy so much that she is willing to
harbor and encourage corruption” said source
as he continued,
“She is from a different generation from Buhari
and she has little personal relationship with her
husband to enable her relate her concerns to
him“. And he can care less of her opinions on
policies or government matters.
Buhari’s realization of Aisha’s brother, Musa’s
interference in his administration was one of the
initial problems that greeted the President.
Aisha’s brother had begun reaching to individuals
seeking to do business with the Buhari’s
administration – immediately Buhari won the
presidential elections.
Reports have it that he raised amounts in excess
of N500million within a span of six month
following the presidential elections. The President
was not happy with Musa. He directed for Musa
to be bundled out of the Presidential villa and
banished from Villa. A source from the villa told
247ureports.com that he was handcuffed an
escorted out of the villa.
It is to this point that the presidency took to
action. The President, according to the source
instructed for all information of financial wrong
doing by his wife and her siblings should be
directed to the EFCC for further investigation.
The Chairman of the EFCC – who is presently
battling to impress the President – is reported to
have been instructed to begin a broad
investigation into the financial dealings of the 1st
lady and her siblings.
247ureports.com is unsure the extent of the
investigation. But it is certain that the 1st lady
has taken her fate and abandoned Buhari’s home
for the United Kingdom
