I needed some extra time away to attend to my health – Aisha Buhari

The wife of the President, Mrs Aisha Buhari, has returned to the country after a long holiday in the United Kingdom.

Director of Information to the First Lady at the State House, Suleiman Haruna, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday.

Aisha arrived at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport via a British Airways flight at about 4:30AM.

Addressing reporters on her arrival, she explained that she was away for health reasons.

According to her, although she had observed her 6 weeks long annual leave, she needed some extra time away to attend to her health.

The First Lady said she was happy to be home after a well-deserved rest.

She also confirmed that she was fully rejuvenated to continue the work of improving the health and well-being of women, children, and other vulnerable Nigerians while she was away.

Aisha used the opportunity to thank her husband, President Muhammadu Buhari, as well as family and well-wishers for their support and encouragement while she was away.

She was received at the airport by wives of present and former and governors and many associates among others.
