Wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, speaking at the 'Thank You' dinner she organized to
appreciate APC women at the presidential villa on Saturday June 13th, warned Nigerians not to fall into the hands of
fraudsters who go about asking for money from Nigerians to arrange a meeting
between them and the President or his wife.
"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. This will not happen in our regime. Whoever
asks you to give a single penny in the name of coming to see the President or
his wife is not our staff. It is a lie, don’t be deceived" she said.
Mrs Buhari said a lot of things were said against former
president Goodluck Jonathan's administration but that it is not like the former
president is a bad man, it was the people around him that gave him a bad
representation.
"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"she said
