Although it has come and gone, the wedding of President Muhammadu
Buhari’s daughter, Aisha, to Ahmed, son of a popular and wealthy
businessman, Indimi, will be regarded as one of the most controversial
in recent times in the country .
Reason:
it all started as the wedding date was reportedly shifted twice.
Besides, but for the First Lady, Hajia Aisha Buhari’ plea, coupled
with the quick intervention of some powerful northern elite, the
wedding would have been called off, particularly after an order by
the President who was not pleased with the buzz it was generating on
social media .
Nevertheless,
the wedding came with some drama. Spyglass gathered that three of
the Indimi girls were barred from attending the wedding. As disclosed
by some sources, one of the ladies, Rahama, the estranged wife of
Muhammed Babangida, was barred from attending, following her alleged
involvement in the widely reported altercation at the wedding
introduction held at the Villa in November.
It was also gathered that her other twin sisters, Zahra and Arena, were not allowed to witness the wedding.
Zahra
had reportedly insisted on recording the event with her mobile phone,
even when she was advised against doing such by protocols inside the
presidential Villa.
Though
her intention, according to reports, was to capture the delivery of
the traditional gifts made up of boxes containing cash, jewellery,
clothes, bags, shoes and other gifts for the bride and the First
Family, her refusal to comply with protocol resulted in an open
altercation with the security personnel on hand.
While
the dust over the ugly development was yet to abate, the President and
his wife were said to have been further infuriated by reports of the
traditional gifts in the social media. The leak was believed to have
come from the camp of the Indimis
‘’
So, as part of conditions for peace, the three most controversial
sisters were not allowed to attend the wedding in order to appease
President Muhammadu Buhari’’ one of the sources disclosed.
