; L-R; Wife of the Vice President, Mrs Dolapo Osinbajo, wife of the President, Mrs. Aisha Muhammadu Buhari, wife of the President of the Senate, Mrs Toyin Bukola Saraki and wife of the Speaker, House of Representatives, Hajiya Gimbia Yakubu Dogara at a dinner hosted by the wife of the President at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Saturday, 13 June 2015.
The wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, Aisha has warned those around the President not to use their position to curry favours, but to key into his agenda of fighting corruption and insecurity.
Speaking while she hosted women and youths to a ‘thank you’ dinner, Mrs. Buhari said the success of the administration would depend on how the people around the President conduct themselves.
According to her, there should be a better representation of women in all arms of government in order to ensure that their concerns are better articulated.
She said: “There was nothing that people did not say about the past administration. It is not Jonathan that is not good, but the people around him.
“So, the people that are going to be around General Buhari have to be very careful because this election ended peacefully.
“We are praying and hoping that people around him should know that it took him 12 years to get to that position and they must know that they are coming to serve the masses, not General Buhari in person.  It is the people that are around him that will determine the political health of our state.

“I will like to inform you that in the past regime, whether it is true or false, only God knows, some people were going round and parading themselves as PAs. If you wanted to see the First Lady, you will pay $30,000, $50,000 and if you are seeing the President, you will pay all that you have gathered in your lifetime.
