| Hajia Aisha Buhari |
Hajia Aisha Buhari, yesterday, opened up on the sacrificial
support of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu on her husband’s presidential aspiration,
affirming that Tinubu’s support has brought Muhammadu Buhari’s ten-year
presidential quest to near actualisation.
Aisha spoke as Tinubu declared that President Goodluck
Jonathan’s time in office was up, lampooning the administration for having a
morbid phobia for election upon what he claimed was years of missed
opportunities and misgovernance.
The two spoke at the 14th town hall meeting of the Lagos
Central senatorial district hosted by Senator Oluremi Tinubu (APC senatorial
candidate), an occasion that drew some of the leading lights of the Lagos
political crowd.
Mrs. Tinubu, at the occasion, blasted the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, of building castles in the air with what she described
as economic gains that did not distil to the populace.
The 14th edition of the Lagos Central senatorial district
town-hall meeting tagged, ‘Treading the path to prosperity’ also saw the launch
of a book written by Senator Oluremi Tinubu, entitled ‘Stewardship Report: A
collection of Town Hall Speeches (2011-2014)’
Among those present at the event were Mrs. Dolapo Osinbajo,
wife of Professor Yemi Osinbajo, APC vice-presidential candidate; Lagos State
First Lady, Dame Abimbola Fashola, Senator Babafemi Ojodu, among others.
Mrs. Buhari said Asiwaju jettisoned personal interest to
ensure that Professor Yemi Osinbajo emerged as vice-presidential candidate to
her husband.
She also said the forthcoming presidential election would be
a unique contest for General Buhari after three prior runs.
“My husband, General Muhammadu Buhari has been contesting
presidential elections for over a decade now, but this particular election is
unique because our leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu jettisoned his personal interest
for the sake of Nigeria.”
In his remarks, Asiwaju Tinubu said the damage the PDP had
done to Nigeria is enough, and the party should as such be voted out.
