The wife of the President, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, on Monday said the long
absence of President Muhammadu Buhari due to ill-health further
emboldened the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.
Though
she did not mention Kanu’s name specifically, Mrs. Buhari said a
40-year-old seized the opportunity of her husband’s absence to create a
state within a state.
She spoke at the opening of a two-day
stakeholders meeting on Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn Child,
Adolescent Health and Nutrition held at the Banquet Hall of the
Presidential Villa.
“Going back to the same health issue in
Nigeria, as a result of spending several months by the President outside
Nigeria, a 40-year-old man who was still living in his father’s house,
created a state out of a state and that is a major set back for the
country and the health sector did not benefit,” she said.
