This is not the first time the first lady will be hospitalized since she assumed office.

In 2019,Mrs Buhari disclosed that she was ill and embarked on a trip abroad where she spent some months.

After recovering and arriving in Nigeria, she said,

“So, the same this year’s holiday in the U.K, I fell sick; so, I stayed back to see a doctor and the doctor advised me to stay back to attend to my health.

“From the U.K, I travelled to Saudi Arabia for Hajj and returned to England on doctor’s advice and they also advised that I should slow down my activities.’’

It will be important to note that since the outbreak of COVID-19 in Nigeria, Aisha Buhari has donated medical supplies such as protective wears, disinfectants, hand sanitizers and more to several states including Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba and the Federal Capital Territory among others.
