Twitter is buzzing over a video shared by The wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, Aisha, Friday, showing senators criticising her husband’s government, as this has elicited reactions with many Nigerians lauding her brave action.
Mrs. Buhari, on her verified Instagram page, reposted videos by two senators, Isah Misau and Ben Bruce, accusing her husband of appointing incompetent persons because they “belong to the cabal.”
In the first video from OakTV that Mrs. Buhari reposted, Misau at the floor of the Senate Thursday condemned Buhari for appointing “an incompetent person” as the Director General of the National Intelligence Agency, NIA.
He accused the President for “doing nothing” since he was elected, adding “the president has not taken anything to change this country.”
Trailing the shared video are tweets in their torrents describing Mrs. Buhari’s action as a courageous one, like someone expressing the feelings of the Nigerian masses.

Aisha Buhari is now campaigning against Buhari. I believe it's all strategy. No matter whatever strategy she runs, I'm still not voting Buhari. Let's stay woke.

Aisha Buhari has done more opposition work against her own husband than PDP.

Children of darkness. They don't want Aisha Buhari to say the truth. They want another Patience Jonathan in the villa. They want another Jezebel that will lead her husband to destruction. Thunder fire all of u!!

The simple truth is that, Aisha Buhari is bitter because she is not getting what the previous 1st ladies enjoyed while in office.
It could be possible she has little influence in this present administration or the cash, material stuffs & luxury going to that office is no more

Aisha Buhari is braving all odds to criticise her husband and some people think she is playing politics…Not every woman is like Patience Jonathan…Aisha stands nothing to gain politically by criticising PMB administration

It's now very clear that Aisha Buhari is campaigning against her husband's 2nd term bid.
It was a threat back in 2016. Now, she's yanked the gloves off.
And she didn't have to say a word to pass the message. pic.twitter.com/S2KNY4v0YU
