Presidential media aide Shehu Garba said something recently
that I want us to discuss. Find it below..

“Out of respect to Mrs. Buhari, the Sierra-Leonian First
Lady, Mrs. Sia Koroma recently surrendered her position
of head of Africa’s First Ladies to Mrs. Buhari, inviting
her to take up the same seat which Mrs. Jonathan
hurriedly handed over a few weeks to the handover of
her husband’s government to President Buhari. Again,
all these things are currently under consideration and
no decision has been arrived at presently"

If Pres. Buhari has or wants to abolish the office of The First
Lady during his administration, (the media has been asked to
refer to Aisha Buhari as the wife of the president and not First
Lady) does it not disqualify her to head Africa's First Lady,
since she's technically not a First Lady? Thoughts?
I ask because Mr Garba said that they are considering it. Below
are other things he said...

“President Buhari promised that there would be a clear
difference between the role played by his wife during his
tenure and that played by many previous First Ladies.
“All that ostentation, ubiquitousness and arrogance we
have come to expect from the office are over and done
with. Change has come.

“The ideal platform from which she will be useful to
Nigeria’s women and children is still being thought out.
Once this has been concluded on, Mrs. Buhari’s role
will become clearer to all Nigerians. There will be
nothing shady or hidden about it. There will be no
access to public funds. It will be purely private and
voluntary."
