-Gov’s wives led by Bisi Fayemi went to Dubai to present a cake to Aisha Buhari on her birthday. An entirely useless act and waste of resources
Nigerians are battling with “No fuel” wahala, and here are some ladies flaunting silliness.
-Nigerian Governors Wives fly to Dubai to present Aisha Buhari with birthday cake while ASUU is on strike.
Pls if your mother is here just DISMOTHER her asap.
-Wives of Nigerian governors embark on a lavish, very wasteful trip to Dubai to “celebrate” the birthday of Aisha Buhari, who has long relocated to Dubai whilst her husband, dictator Buhari, is President of Nigeria. Ironic?
-Presidency: Not to upset Nigerians who are currently feeling the brunt of fuel scarcity and ASUU strike coupled with the heatwave, Nigeria’s first lady Aisha Buhari has received a birthday cake from state governor’s wives in Dubai instead of Abuja.
