Aisha Buhari, wife of Nigeria’s president caused a major stir on the Nigerian internet on Friday, after she shared videos of senators Isah Misau and Ben Bruce criticising her husband’s government
Responding to Aisha’s latest action, Bruce described her as an intelligent woman with good leadership qualities.
He wrote via his twitter handle;
Let me say that by the actions and utterances of @aishambuhari since she became Nigeria’s First Lady, it‘s my opinion that she does not belong in the ‘other room’. She is a very intelligent woman that has the capacity to lead and lead well. Your Excellency, please never be cowed!

This isn’t the first time the wife of the Nigerian leader would disagree with him in public. In an interview with BBC in 2016, she alleged that her husband’s government had been hijacked. President Buhari while responding to the shocking criticism, had said his wife belongs “in his kitchen and “the other room.”
The phrase “the other room”, was all over the social media at the time and it obviously meant the ‘bedroom’.
