First Ladies Are Also Spreading The Dividends Of Democracy – Aisha Buhari

Wife of President, Mrs. Aisha Buhari has come out to urge journalists to engage more with state first ladies with a view to giving their projects more visibility.

She recently revealed this in Abuja at an event organised by the Independent Newspapers to honour state first ladies who had used their offices to impact positively on the lives of the people, especially the less privileged and vulnerable.

According to her, she is always happy to be part of events that recognise the efforts of first ladies in spreading the dividends of democracy.

Aisha added that she is very pleased with the fact that first ladies have been recognised as having excelled in this regard.

Her words, “I am happy to be at this memorable event, which seeks to recognise the efforts of first ladies in spreading the dividends of democracy.”

“I am particularly happy that some first ladies have been recognised as having excelled in this regard.”

“I want to use this opportunity to call on media practitioners to engage more with first ladies so that their projects can get more visibility.”

“It is without a doubt that the media has a pivotal role to play not just setting agenda for discourse, but also in supporting and amplifying worthy causes.”

“They also provide financial support in terms of scholarships and settlement of medical bills for the underprivileged.”
