Even Buhari’s Wife Does Not Agree With Husbands Policies, Says Kukah


(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Catholic Bishop of the Diocese of Sokoto, Matthew Kukah, has stated that Aisha Buhari, the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari also does not agree with what he complained about her husband.

Kukah disclosed this on Tuesday when he appeared in an interview on Arise TV on Tuesday morning.

The clergy, while reiterating his stance stated that he had nothing personal against President Buhari but his policies which his wife also disagrees with.

Kukah said, “All those saying I attacked the President, I have never attacked his person. All I have spoken about is his inability to manage diversities effectively and efficiently. I have studied diversity as a subject and I know what I am talking about. “Those who think these things are personal would see that I have never talked about his person or character; I believe he is a gentleman but as far as being the President is concerned, he has done a bad job, even his wife has also disagreed with his policies.

“So, those guys should not sit in their air-conditioned office drinking coffee and thinking everything is honky-donkey. Let them disagree with the text of my message.”

According to the Bishop, he has tremendous respect for the President and his person who he sees as a gentleman but giving an assessment of his job as a President, he has failed woefully in delivery goods.

He said, “Let me set the record straight, I delivered my sermon to my congregation and the message. The bearers of the message are directed primarily to the good people of Sokoto dioceses.

“The President knows that I have great respect for him and he is a gentleman, but he has done a terribly bad job as the President of Nigeria.

“There is nothing I am saying that is new; all the pastors who preached yesterday during the Easter service said the same thing. Tell me one thing about the message that I preached that you disagree with and let’s discuss.”

According to Kukah, he speaks directly with President Buhari and his criticism of his government is nothing personal but the zeal to see things changed for the better.

He added, “For a Muslim (Garba Shehu) to sit down and tell me what an Easter message should contain is something.

“Buhari himself knows that there is nothing personal in what I say. One thing the President has said that humbled me is that he told me, ‘Bishop Kukah, I know where you stand on any issue that has to do with Nigeria.”

“What connected me with Buhari and a lot of Muslims is not the Catholic Church, it is my public position on a lot of things. And I am not saying it so that you must agree with me. But Nigerians have been extraordinarily magnanimous because I have not had many people saying we disagree with you and I have not spoken because I know the issue.

The primary beneficiary of what I say is me and I speak for myself. If you have any issues with me, let’s clarify the issue.”
