ALAO ABIODUN FROM THE NATION
Aisha, the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, has ‘endorsed’ the video of Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai accusing “elements” in the Presidential Villa of working against All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
El-Rufai said the saboteurs in Aso Rock were those whose candidates lost at the party’s presidential primary and are still bitter.
Aisha uploaded the video on Instagram on Wednesday, hours after El-Rufai spoke on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme.
The President’s wife, who also leads Tinubu’s women campaign train, captioned the post: “#longlivethefederalrepublicofnigeria”.
El-Rufai said the unnamed people are now hiding behind President Buhari to pursue their interests.
“I believe there are elements in the villa who want us to lose the election because they didn’t get their way; they had their candidate. Their candidate did not win the primaries.
“They are trying to get us to lose the election, and they are hiding behind the president’s desire to do what he thinks is right
