Reacting to a series of quotes attributed to Aisha — in which she allegedly stated that Buhari had asked her to seek forgiveness from Nigerians on his behalf — Kperogi stated that, while he could not confirm the authenticity of those quotes, it was clear the couple had separated.
He wrote, “They had divorced, and Aisha reverted to her maiden name, Aisha Halilu. If you paid close attention, you would notice that Aisha didn’t go to Daura when he retired to the town after leaving office.”
“Buhari was also alone when he later relocated to Kaduna. In fact, when he fell ill and it was suggested that Aisha travel to London to care for him, she reportedly hesitated because she was no longer his wife.”
The revelation has sparked public interest and reactions across social media.
