Aisha Buhari
Wife of the President, Mrs Aisha
Buhari, has denied ever receiving Sporty Utility Vehicles (SUVs) from the
Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris.
According to a statement issued
by Suleiman Haruna, Director of Information to wife of the President
in Abuja, on Thursday, Aisha was still using her family cars, the
same as she used during the electioneering campaign.
The statement said: “Our attention
has been drawn to the news being widely circulated, and attributed to a member
of the Senate, that two SUVs from the Inspector General of Police were given to
the wife of the President, Mrs Aisha Muhammadu Buhari personally.
“The wife of the President wants to
make it clear that since the assumption of office of her husband as President
of Nigeria, she did not receive these mentioned vehicles.
“Furthermore, the vehicles she is
still using belong to the family and were the ones used during the campaign for
2015 elections including the one for her entourage.”
She was reacting to a statement
made on Wednesday by Senator Isah Misau from Bauchi State.
Senator Isah Misau spoke before the
Senate ad-hoc committee investigating him.
The senator had claimed
that Buhari’s wife had requested for a Sienna and Hiace bus through her
aide Aide de Camp (ADC) but chose to supply two SUVs instead.
