Few would have believed that the taciturn, austere General Muhammadu Buhari had a soft-smiling and sweet woman at home, Aisha. Not much is known about the retired General’s wife.
She has remained in the background despite her husband’s larger-than-life status in the society but could now impose a very different style from the current First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan at the Presidential Villa, Aso Rock in Abuja, after the victory of her husband at the last presidential election.
Although during the early campaign of the new president elect, there was no sign of a woman with him, creating the fear that he might not be women-friendly. That was when the picture of his wife appeared on the social media and she turned out to be a stunning beauty.
Little wonder, not much is known about the First Lady-elect other than a few details in the media: she is 44, married to her 72-year-old husband in 1989 after he divorced his first wife, Sefinatu, the previous year, and they have five children together.
However, meeting Aisha for the first time, you cannot but appreciate her cool mien, humble personality and cheerful nature.
With the entry of Aisha Buhari as Nigeria’s in-coming First Lady, it appears that the Adamawa-born beautician will bring calm and harmony to the Presidency.
Mrs. Aisha Buhari is a thorough professional and an alumnus of the famous Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria where she earned a Bachelor’s in Public Administration.
Her quest for more education took her into the field of Physiotherapy and beauty therapy. She is also an alumnus of the famous Carlton Institute of London and the Academy Esthetique Beauty Institute of France, Dubai, where she earned post-graduate diploma in cosmetology and beauty therapy.
Following her certification in beauty and Permanent Make Up, Mrs Buhari engaged in private enterprise where she has since become an employer of labour, a mentor to all aspiring cosmetologists and a consultant to the KRCP/NNPC on skills acquisition.
Mrs Buhari is a member of the United Kingdom Vocational Training and Charitable Trust (VTCT), The International Health and Beauty Council (HBC). A devout Moslem, Mrs Buhari is currently a graduate student of International Affairs and Strategic Planning. Her immensely popular daughter, Zahra, has also helped to boost her image in the eyes of the public.
