She said: “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.
“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.”
In the BBC interview, the First Lady refused to name those who had “hijacked the government,” saying: “You will know them if you watch television.”
On whether the President is in charge, she said: “That is left for the people to decide.” Aisha added.
Reacting to Aisha's comments, Buhari who is on a state visit to Germany, said his wife belongs to his kitchen and his living and the other room.
According to him, “I don’t know which party my wife belongs to, but she belongs to my kitchen and my living room and the other room.” Buhari said.
Displeased with the President's comments, Nigerians took to micro blogging site, Twitter, to give their take on Mr. Buhari's 'The Other Room' comment.
