Aisha’s Spokesman, Aliyu Abdullahi told BBC Hausa on Monday that his principal was not happy with how the cartoonist portrayed her in the cartoon image.
He said, “The cartoonist did not put Mrs Buhari in the right perspective with his drawing. Her daughter’s wedding has nothing to do with the present hardship Nigerians are facing.
“And let me tell you that the first lady told all her aides not to make the wedding a big one because it was going to be a low key event.
“And again, the wedding pictures Aisha shared on her social media pages were pictures shot after the wedding parties.”
Furthermore, the presidential aide added that the video which also went viral showing a crowd of people at the wedding were videos that were shot in Zaria at the grooms’ residence and not at the presidency.
