While speaking to State
House correspondents, after meeting with the president on Friday, Kaduna
State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, has criticized Minister of Women Affair, Aisha
Alhassan, and claims she was a supporter of President Muhammadu Buhari.
The Governor said he
was not surprised that Alhassan, popularly called Mama Taraba, openly endorsed
former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar.
El-Rufai also revealed
that the Minister was not in Buhari’s camp during the presidential primary
election of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and has never supported the
president’s ideology.
According to him,
Buhari ignored reservations expressed by party members, when he decided to pick
her as Minister.
The governor added that
retaining or replacing her is “the discretion of the president.”
