In an interview with Naziru Mikailu of BBC Hausa, wife of the president, Aisha Buhari has said she will not campaign with her husband in 2019 if things continue the way it is.

She said people who did not share the vision of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) were now appointed to top posts because of the influence a “few people” wield. Read after the cut…

“Some people are sitting down in their homes folding their arms only for them to be called to come and head an agency or a ministerial position.”

Asked to name those who had hijacked the government, she refused, saying:

“You will know them if you watch television.”

On whether the president was in charge, she said:

“That is left for the people to decide.”Mrs Buhari said her husband had not told her whether he would contest the 2019 election.

“He is yet to tell me but I have decided as his wife, that if things continue like this up to 2019, I will not go out and campaign again and ask any woman to vote like I did before. I will never do it again.”

Asked what she regarded as the government’s major achievement, she said it was to improve security in the north-east where militant Islamist group Boko Haram has waged an insurgency since 2009.

“No-one is complaining about being attacked in their own homes. Thankfully everyone can walk around freely, go to places of worship, etc. Even kids in Maiduguri have returned to schools,”

Mrs Buhari said, referring to the city which was once the headquarters of the militant group.
