Editor’s note: Aisha Buhari has the face of a gentle and calm woman and many Nigerians have argued that she is the most beautiful first lady the country has had.
In this opinion by Buchi Obichie, she points out that Aisha Buhari might be a gentle woman but she would not hesitate to unleash her annoyance if provoked.
President Buhari and his eye for beauty
Our President, Muhammadu Buhari, is a man who detests corruption. A simple, starched agbada-wearing Fulani man; one would not be wrong to assume that some of Buhari’s dearest possession are the Cattle on his Katsina farm.
The President frowns at braggadocios, flamboyant thieves- those who flaunt wealth lavishly, at the expense of the nation. He doesn’t just detest them; he has authorized the EFCC to go after them! But while Mr. President is obviously a man of simple tastes, he does have an eye for beautiful things- or may I say “beautiful people.” Have you seen his wife, Aisha?

At the 2015 inauguration of Muhammadu Buhari, Nigerians got a full glimpse of his family. Ladies drooled over the handsome- and quiet- Yusuf, and guys like Banky W sent out “ello bae” tweets to Zahra. But fine as all the Buhari children are, all eyes were on the woman of the Buhari household i.e. Aisha Buhari. Clad in her native attire and diamond-studded Cartier watch, Aisha Buhari stood proudly by her husband, as he took the oath of office.
The Aisha Buhari we think we know
Mrs. Buhari is the classic “beauty with brains” woman. She has a Masters’ Degree in International Relations and Strategic Studies, while also being a certified cosmetologist. A campaigner for the rights of girls and children, Mrs. Buhari has championed the cause of women in politics, malnourished children in IDP camps, abused children, the girl child, etc. Simply addressed as “the wife of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” she has carried out her duties as First Lady, with poise, class and finesse.
