Titi Abubakar, the wife of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has appealed to Nigerians to vote her husband into the office so that Nigeria can have a Yoruba first lady.
The wife of the presidential candidate from PDP, Hajia Titi Atiku-Abubakar told BBC Yoruba, in an interview that it will be an honor for the Yoruba generation.
“Since when Obasanjo, we have not had a Yoruba First Lady, so I deserve to be seated in Aso rock as first Yoruba first lady”
Titi Abubakar further said she wants to break the jinx of Yoruba not producing a First Lady since the inception of democracy.
According to Titi, all Nigerians of Yoruba descent should support her husband’s candidacy to enable her to achieve her dream.
“I’m from Osun state. In the past, Christians and Muslims did things together. My parents allowed me to marry him. But now, we don’t know where the world is going. My husband saw all these and he said he wants to return Nigeria to a point of unity.” she stated.
The Interview has since sent many Netizens into fury.
