Aisha Buhari divinely wired to stabilise husband's govt

The Founder, Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has urged President Muhamamdu Buhari to consult his wife, Aisha, more often if his government must succeed.

Ayodele described the First Lady as a woman of prayer and faith that has been “divinely wired” to stabilise her husband’s government.

For this reason, he said, some powerful forces have been fighting her and her children to render her powerless.

The popular cleric disclosed these in an interview published by Saturday Sun.

He urged the president to consult widely within his family before choosing his next Chief of Staff. Buhari lost his Chief of Staff, Mallam Abba Kyari, to COVID-19 in April.

On what the president should look out for before choosing Kyari’s successor, Ayodele said, “He needs to choose a technocrat, someone who thinks about Nigeria first, it has to be someone who can feel the pulse of the poor.

“He needs an administrator. A person who understands that government has to reflect on the poor.

“He needs a well-educated person, especially with the discipline of a military background. Someone who must be able to network across the nation to give his government a good image that he really needs in this last lap of his government.

“This is why the president needs more consultation within his family and not outsiders.

“His family; his wife and children are the only people who will tell him the naked truth, protect his best interest and not outsiders. He needs his family now more than ever.

“Presidents who have given their wives key roles in governance have performed well more than those who have relegated their wives to back seats.

“A woman can see better than a man because they are created differently. Clairvoyance is one of their advantages over men.

“The nation is sick and needs its mother. It is going to be difficult for Buhari to understand this because he has another ideology of a woman’s role.

“He needs to listen to her now because when they fall, they fall together and nobody can love Buhari more than Aisha and her children and that makes them first person to be consulted before picking his next chief of staff.”
