The former Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Rowland Owie has reacted to the controversial interview granted by the wife of the president, Aisha Buhari to BBBC Hausa Service.
In the explosive interview, Aisha Buhari had threatened to withdraw her support for the president should he fail to shake things up.
She further alleged that a few people have seized power from the president and are in charge of appointments.
In reaction to the interview, Senator Rowland Owie while speaking to Vanguard said he would send any wife that tries the move on him packing.
He further added that although the first lady was right in her criticism, she should not have aired it in public.
Owie said: “Aisha is right in criticism of President Buhari’s appointments, but the medium she adopted is very wrong. Such advice from a wife to a husband should be given at Bed time and not to the hearing of anybody.
“If a wife does that to me, the woman will return to her parent’s house within 24 hours of that statement. A Benin Parable says- Only one’s enemy that will advise one in the presence of The Oba in council.”
