The President had dismissed that statement by saying that his wife belonged in the kitchen and also in the “other room.”
However, during a summit organised for women by a political group in Abuja recently, Aisha again alleged that two powerful men were holding her husband’s government hostage.

“That’s her business and it shows I am a true democrat by allowing everybody to have an opinion.
“I challenge those alleging to show single evidence,” the President countered.
