Zahra and Hanan, daughters of President Muhammadu Buhari, on Thursday wrote their mother Aisha Buhari heartwarming notes on social media.
Zahra, who is married to Ahmed Indimi, posted to Instagram a photo of her mother with the vice president’s wife Dolapo Osinbajo and other women, saying “If love and respect was a photo.”
She wondered what her life would be without her mother.
“Happy birthday my dearest! I love you so much, sometimes I wonder what would be left of me to be without you. Your energy is infectious,” Zahra wrote.
On her part, Hanan posted a photo of her mother dressing her up on her wedding day.
Married to Mohammed Sha’aban, Hanan wrote a poem in honour of her mother.
“‘Emotional, yet the rock. Tired, but keeps going. Worried, but a believer. Impatient, yet patient. Overwhelmed, but never quits. Amazing, even though doubted. Wonderful, even in the chaos. Life Changer, every single day,’” she said.
“I am a strong woman because a strong woman raised me,” Hanan added.
Mrs Buhari was born on February 17, 1951, in Adamawa State. She married Buhari in 1989.
