Wife of the President, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, has accused some unnamed powerful people of creating divisions among members of the All Progressives Congress.
Aisha, whose statement might be an indication that the crisis in the APC is deeper than known in public, was however confident that these people would not be able to destroy the mandate vested in her husband by 15 million Nigerians.
Mrs. Buhari spoke in an interview she granted the Hausa Service of the BBC which was aired in part on Tuesday.
She said, “This worries us a lot now. Because they believe they are the ones who suffered, but are no where today. Those who didn’t do anything who don’t even have voters’ card are the ones in position, doing everything.”
The President’s wife was also quoted to have said: “What I am afraid for them is the rebellion of 15 million people.” Responding to a question on whether her husband had sufficient knowledge of the identity of those at the centre of the controversies, she said: “Whether he knows or not, those who voted for him know. “He can see. Among all the people he selected, if he is asked among 50 people, he doesn’t know 45. I don’t know them despite staying with him for 25 years.”
