PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of new
six aides for the Office of the First Lady.

A statement conveying this by the Director of Information to
First Lady of Nigeria, Mr Suleiman Haruna, said the appointments
took immediate effect.

The appointees are Dr Mairo Almakura, Special Assistant on
African First Ladies Peace Mission (AFLPM), Muhammed Albishir –
Special Assistant on Organization of African First Ladies for
Development (OAFLAD), Wole Aboderin – Special Assistant on
Non-Governmental Organizations, Barr. Aiyu Abdullahi – Special
Assistant on Media and Publicity, Zainab Kazeem – Special Assistant
on Domestic and Social Events and Funke Adesiyan – Personal
Assistant on Domestic and Social Events

The appointments were announced barely a few hours after a
delegation from the governors’ wives forum paid the Nigerian First
Lady, Aisha Buhari a courtesy visit.

The First Lady, Aisha Buhari while addressing the delegation
expressed her resolve to construct a regional secretariat for the
African First Ladies Peace Mission (AFLPM).

The Mission, which was established after the Beijing Conference
of 1995, has been in the custody of Nigeria, with leadership
rotating among African First Ladies.

She made the pledge during a solidarity visit by First Ladies
from the states at the Presidential Villa on Wednesday, 16th
October 2019.

“I have successfully secured 2.7 hectares of land in Abuja for
this purpose and the foundation laying will soon be conducted in
the presence of African First Ladies,” said Mrs Buhari.

Speaking on the advocacy project for the improvement of maternal
and child health, which is supported by Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation and implemented by Future Assured Programme in
partnership with the states First Ladies, Mrs Buhari said it will
come to an end on December 2019.

She used the opportunity to commend the wives of governors for
the good work they have been doing in their various states, and the
successful collaboration they did with Future Assured, calling on
the new First Ladies to do the same. She called on them not to
succumb to distractions by social media.

Commenting on the videos circulating on social networks, Mrs
Buhari extended her apology to her children, her immediate family
members and all well-meaning Nigerians over the embarrassment that
the videos had caused.

She expressed appreciation to the President for approving a new
set of aides to assist her in carrying out her various
responsibilities.

Earlier, First Lady of Borno State, Mrs Falmata Umara Zulum
representing Northern First Ladies Forum and Mrs Betsy Obaseki,
representing Southern First Ladies Forum spoke during the
occasion.

Mrs Zulum said they were at the Villa to welcome her back after
a long absence, and expressed their unalloyed loyalty and support
to her initiatives especially through the Future Assured Programme,
which she said has made her a role model even to other African
women.
