The Presidency stated this while reacting to allegations in some Nigerian media that the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari has moved into the First Lady’s office in the Aso Villa.
According to a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Shehu Garba, the presidency described allegation as totally false and fictitious, adding that even though there was absolutely nothing wrong with Mrs. Buhari making use of the office space reserved for the First Lady, she had not done so in her capacity.
Shehu contended that under President Buhari, the office shall be completely different from what obtained in the past, adding that the era of the First Ladies issuing oil wells and licenses was gone.
“President Buhari promised that there would be a clear difference between the role played by his wife during his tenure and that played by many previous First Ladies.
“All that ostentation, ubiquitousness and arrogance we have come to expect from the office are over and done with. Change has come.
