You must have seen the trending
picture — Aisha Buhari, wife of the president, showing off her tattoo and the
4+4 hand sign canvassing another four years for her husband in office. In one
of the pictures are four persons all in the “4+4” mood with their hands raised
and smiles etched on their faces.
This was at the inauguration of
Women and Youth for 2019 Presidential Campaign Team at the state house, Abuja,
on Thursday.
It all seemed like a jolly good
game, at least for those in Buhari’s corner, until the picture started trending
on social media.
The message was that one of the
women in the picture was Amina Zakari, the commissioner of the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC) who is currently at the centre of a
controversy over her relationship with Buhari.
IS IT AMINA ZAKARI OR SOMEONE ELSE?
Without much ado, the person in
the picture is Hajo Sani, PhD, senior special assistant to the wife of the
president on administration.
Sani is an educationist, author
and policy analyst and was a minister of state for women affairs and social
development from 1997 to 1998. She would later set up the Women and National
Development (WAND), an NGO promoting education of the girl-child.

This is not the first time she is
getting sucked into negative news — her son took to Instagram a year ago to
display exotic cars, and this was an item of internet storm for a while.
Sani is an ardent campaigner for
Buhari’s re-election and currently supports the Dr. Hajo Sani Youth Network for
Buhari Continuity.
