Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Wednesday hosted Aisha Buhari, wife of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari, at his residence in Abuja.
In a statement shared on his X handle, the presidential
candidate of the African Democratic Party (ADC) said Aisha’s visit was warm and
deeply appreciated.
The former vice-president did not disclose why the former
first lady visited him but said the visit emphasised the need for everyone
desirous of a better Nigeria to always put the welfare, dignity and future of
the people first.
“Today, I was delighted to receive former First Lady, H.E.
Aisha Buhari,” Atiku wrote.
“Her visit was warm and deeply appreciated. Beyond the
courtesies of the occasion, it was also a reminder of the urgent responsibility
before all who seek a better Nigeria: to put the welfare, dignity and future of
our people first.”
The former vice-president said across the country, many
families are being stretched by rising costs of food, transport, education,
healthcare and other basic necessities.
He said Nigerians deserve an economy that rewards hard work,
restores opportunity and allows every family to live with dignity and hope.
“That is the Nigeria we must build together, a country that
works for its people again,” he said.
“We must ease the burden, restore hope and Make Nigeria
Affordable Again.”
After Buhari’s death in London on July 13, 2025, Aisha and
her family members relocated from Daura, his hometown in Katsina state, to the
family’s residence in Ungwan Rimi GRA, Kaduna, in late July 2025.
In May, Yusuf Buhari won the All Progressives Congress (APC)
primary for the Sandamu/Daura/Mai’adua federal constituency seat in Katsina.
