Former Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Femi Adesina, has debunked rumours that the former First Lady, Aisha Buhari, had divorced her husband before his death.
Adesina, who served under Buhari’s administration from 2015 to 2023, revealed that Aisha was present in Kaduna as recently as March 2025, during the president’s last stay at his northern residence before he departed for London on his final medical trip.
In a heartfelt tribute published following the former president’s demise, Adesina recounted visiting Buhari during Ramadan in March, noting that the First Lady was very much by his side at the time.
