10 things you never knew about President Buhari’s first wife, Safinatu – #6 & #7 will make you wish she’s still alive (With Pics)

6. She was always quietly by her husband’s side but she concentrated almost all her energy on her children and making the home very comfortable and peaceful for the general. She never interferred with her husband’s official work and did not discuss national matters with him.

7. When it came to the traditional dishes, they were always personally prepared by the First Lady herself, assisted by aides. General Buhari loved to enjoy pepper soup made with mutton, chicken or fish.

8. As at the time her husband was overthrown, she had given birth to four children: Zulaihatu (now late), Magajiya-Fatima, Hadizatu-Nana and Safinatu Lami. They would also later have a fifth child, Musa (now late).
