Minister of Women Affairs, Aisha
Alhassan, on Tuesday met President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa,
Abuja.
The Waziri Adamawa, last Friday,
announced his resignation from the All Progressives Congress, APC
When approached by State House
correspondents for her reaction on Atiku’s exit, the minister declined comment.
Alhassan maintained sealed lips
as she walked away.
She had met Buhari shortly after
she and and some Ministers attended the inauguration of the Policy Framework
and National Action Plan for Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism at the
Villa.
The duo held a closed-door
meeting before Governor Bindow Jibrilla of Adamawa met with the president
before the latter jetted out of the country to Abidjan.
Recall that Alhassan, a few
months ago at a gathering, declared that “Atiku is my godfather even before I
joined politics.”
“And again, Baba Buhari did not
tell us that he is going to run in 2019.
“Let me tell you today that if
Baba said he is going to contest in 2019, I swear to Allah, I will go before
him and kneel and tell him that ‘Baba I am grateful for the opportunity you
gave me to serve your government as a minister’.
‘But Baba just like you know, I
will support only Atiku because he is my godfather. If Atiku said he is going
to contest’.
“If because of what I said, I am
sacked, it will not bother me because I believe in Allah, that my time has
elapsed that is why.
“Baba is not a mad man like those
calling for my sack. They have been sending it and spreading that if Baba sees
this, I will be sacked.”
