Aisha Buhari’s travel to Dubai: Real reason allegedly revealed
Fresh facts at the disposal of Sahara Reporters have revealed that Nigeria’s First Lady, Aisha Buhari, who was said to have been flown to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, during the Sallah break over a severe neck pain, may have had other motives for going to the Arabian country.
Daily Times gathered that Mrs Buhari’s travel was packaged to look like a health emergency in order not to raise eyebrows for violating the government’s restriction on international flights due to the coronavirus outbreak.

It was reliably gathered on Monday that Mrs Buhari actually flew to Dubai in a jet belonging to billionaire Mohammed Indimi for the purpose of shopping for luxury items in preparation for the wedding of her daughter, Hanan.
Dubai is a popular destination for Nigerians especially the wealthy class seeking quality and expensive items for personal use and/or grand ceremonies.
Before her trip abroad, President Muhammadu Buhari reportedly met with the family of Hanan’s fiancée for further arrangements and other processes forming part of the occasion to be put in place.
A source reliably informed Sahara Reporters that Mrs Buhari’s travel was packaged to look like a health emergency in order not to raise eyebrows for violating government’s restriction on international flights due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The Nigerian Government had, on March 23, 2020, banned international commercial flights to curtail the spread of COVID-19 in the country.
“It was well-planned, her neck doctor is in London, not Dubai. She travelled to shop for luxury items ahead of Hanan’s wedding.
“There is presently a ban on international flights by the government except it is essential, so the best way for her to travel was under the guise of medical treatment,” the source said.
