Following the visit of Hajia Aisha
Buhari, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, to the United States of America,
the Arewa Youth Integrity Forum (AYIF) has asked Governor Ayodele Fayose of
Ekiti State, to immediately apologise to Nigerians and the first family after
he claimed Mrs Buhari was a fugitive from justice in the US over the
Halliburton scandal. Fayose-Aisha BuhariFayose-Aisha Buhari Addressing
journalists in Abuja, AYIF national president, Comrade Abubakar Ibrahim said
this visit by the President’s wife is a further proof that Fayose lied in his
claim about Mrs Buhari. He said, “We pointed out this visit because of its
significance to what had transpired earlier when Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele
Fayose came up with his tales by moonlight in which he vigorously tried to
mislead the public with claims that Mrs Buhari was a fugitive from justice in
the US over the Halliburton scandal. Various persons that set the records
straight that the wife of the President was not the same ‘Aisha Buhari’
mentioned in the court documents were ridiculed and bad mouthed. “May we remind
Fayose that Mrs Buhari was not the one who was recorded in a hotel suite
conspiring with others to breach the Electoral Law. The first family did not
tell him to engage in money laundry involving billions of naira ferried from one
airport to another. It was not Mr President that made the lodgement of proceeds
of crime into the Ekiti state governor’s bank account. It was not northerners
that made Fayose to be richer than Ekiti state neither were we responsible for
his inability to sell his family to pay salaries to workers’ whose money he has
diverted into his personal account. Ibrahim said now that Mrs Buhari’s visit to
the United States has confirmed that Fayose was not telling the truth, “we are
calling on him to apologize to the first family, and Nigerian women.” He added
that Fayose should rather focus his energy to explain his misrule to Ekiti
people when his tenure expires. “We see the vintage Fayose, upon realising that
his lies have been found out, desperately looking for a way to distract the
nation by calling attention to the handbag Mrs Buhari was holding in one of the
pictures from the US. This obvious attempt to trivialize the issue with the
woman’s bag is a new low for Fayose even by his own standards. “Our expectations
are that beginning with Ekiti state, at the end of Fayose’s tenure, the
electorates would insist that psychiatric evaluation and a consequent
certificate of mental competence would be requisite for all the candidates
seeking elections,” he said. The youths urged Mrs Buhari not to relent in her
life changing activities, but rather increase the tempo upon her return from
the United States.
