Almost two months after being away from the country, the First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Muhammadu Buhari returned to the country. She arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport at 4.30am via a British Airways flight.

She used the opportunity to thank her husband, family and well-wishers for their support and encouragement.

“Since the president was elected and due to exigencies of duty it has not been possible, however this year I decided to break the jinx and spend time with them, especially since Mr President has graciously appointed Special Advisers  and Personal assistants to me,” Aisha Buhari said.
