In a shocking revelation, the President's wife, Mrs Aisha Buhari has said she may not support her husband's re-election in 2019.

She said unless the President retakes his
government from a "few people" who are
controlling it, he may lose her backing in the
next polls.
Speaking in a BBC interview, she revealed that
her husband "does not know" most of the top
officials in his government. She said a 'powerful
caucus' is behind the presidential appointments.
"The president does not know 45 out of 50, for
example, of the people he appointed and I don't
know them either, despite being his wife of 27
years," Aisha Buhari said.
She said people who have been appointed to top
positions do not even share the vision of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) but they got the
appointments because of the influence a select
few wield.
"Some people are sitting down in their homes
folding their arms only for them to be called to
come and head an agency or a ministerial position,"
she said.
When asked to mention names of those who
have hijacked the Buhari administration, she
said: "You will know them if you watch
television."
She noted that although the President has not
made his 2019 ambition known to her, she will
not campaign for him if he decides to run.
"He is yet to tell me but I have decided as his wife,
that if things continue like this up to 2019, I will not
go out and campaign again and ask any woman to
vote like I did before. I will never do it again," Mrs
Buhari vowed.
