Aisha Buhari Laments Some People Are Using Social Media Against The Govt

The wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, has lamented over the use of social media against the administration of her husband.

She alleged that some people were using the social against the interest of the government.

Aisha said “bad people” have taken over the country from people who are “supposed to be in charge”.

She disclosed this on a TV program on Thursday during a telephone interview on Television Continental’s Journalist Hangout.

The First Lady said “I didn’t take it seriously because even my husband didn’t know what was happening,” she said of the rumoured marriage.

“Both of us didn’t know what was happening; they just decided to bombard social media with it. They are now taking to social media to bring down the government itself.

“I think that we should not allow people that are nothing to override the innocent; I don’t know why people that are supposed to be in charge should remain mute while bad people take over the country from us. It is impossible and totally unacceptable.”

The first lady also accused presidential aides and other government officials of ignoring issues they should respond to and focusing on things that the presidency has no business in.

“Whenever they (presidential aides) are supposed to take action against the offenders, or to take action or to take charge or be in control, or caution people, they keep mute,” she said.
