President Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter-in-law Zahra Bayero-Buhari, is part of the Presidential delegation to the ongoing annual meeting of world leaders, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA77).
This was confirmed by the First Lady, Aisha Buhari on Wednesday 21st September 2022, on her official social media handle.
The post by the First Lady where President Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter-In-law is photographed with the President, is coming just a day after Aisha Buhari came under huge criticism for celebrating her daughter-in-law’s graduation amid the ongoing ASUU strike.
Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter-In-law Zahra Bayero-Buhari, who got married to President Muhammadu Buhari’s son, Yusuf, in August 2021, graduated from a UK university on Tuesday.
Mrs Zahra Zahra Nasiru Ado-Bayero-Buhari graduated with a First Class Honours in Architectural Science from a foreign university.
The good news was shared on Tuesday 20th September 2022, by the First Lady, Mrs Aisha Buhari on her official social media handle. But she did not disclose the name of the university and the country where she graduated from.
Aisha’s critics berated her for being insensitive to the plights of Nigerian students who have been out of school for seven months, due to the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The First Lady who seems to be enjoying the attention that Zahra Bayero is getting after the graduation photos, updated Nigerians on Wednesday, saying her daughter-in-law is part of the President Muhammadu Buhari delegation to the UN General Assembly meeting in New York, United States.
The theme for the UNGA 77th session which opened on Tuesday, 13 September, is: “A watershed Moment: Transformative Solutions to Interlocking Challenges.”
Key topics of discussion at the UNGA this year include; the war in Ukraine, the energy crisis, climate action, ending the COVID-19 pandemic, and a special Transforming Education Summit.
President Buhari will take his turn to deliver the National Statement on the second day of the General Debates on Wednesday, 21 September.
Aside his statement, the president will also participate in High Level meetings and side events including the Nigeria International Economic Partnership Forum (NIEPF), convened by Nigeria in partnership with the Business Council for International Understanding (BCIU); Strengthening Coordination through National Humanitarian Development Peace (NHDP) Framework: A practical approach to sustainable durable solutions to ensure no one is left behind, organised by the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development; and the EFCC-NEPAD Programme on combating Illicit Financial Flows.
