Why Aisha Buhari visited me — Atiku

By Olayinka Ajayi

Former Vice-President and 2027 African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has said the visit of former First Lady, Aisha Buhari, highlighted the need to build a better Nigeria.

Atiku disclosed this in a post on his X handle on Wednesday, following a meeting with the former First Lady.

He said the visit was a reminder of the responsibility of those seeking a better country to prioritise the welfare and dignity of Nigerians.

“I was delighted to receive former First Lady, H.E. Aisha Buhari. Her visit was warm and deeply appreciated.

“Beyond the courtesies of the occasion, it was also a reminder of the urgent responsibility before all who seek a better Nigeria: to put the welfare, dignity and future of our people first,” he said.

Atiku said Nigerians deserved an economy that provided opportunities and enabled families to live with dignity and hope.

He said, “Across our country, families are being stretched by the rising cost of food, transport, education, healthcare and other basic necessities.

“Nigerians deserve an economy that rewards hard work, restores opportunity and allows every family to live with dignity and hope.”

The former Vice-President said building such a country would require collective efforts to ease the economic burden on Nigerians and restore hope.

“That is the Nigeria we must build together, a country that works for its people again. We must ease the burden, restore hope and make Nigeria Affordable Again,” he added.
