Former President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday advised the First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, to use the “pillow talk” principle to draw the attention of her husband, President Muhammed Buhari, to issues affecting the nation and the need to address them urgently.
Obasanjo, who was apparently reacting to Aisha’s latest displeasure with the frightening security situation in the country and the seeming inability of the military to arrest it, said the First Lady might have been able to bring home the issue to Buhari, if she had adopted the bedroom approach.
The ex-president spoke when he hosted the Editorial Board of Penpushing Media, a Social media platform, at his Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL).
In a statement by his media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, Obasanjo said: “We have to put all things on the table to address these problems. Mind you, we have to be sincere and genuine with ourselves.
“It is nice that President wife is talking. I think she did well, and maybe she should also have a pillow talk with the President.
“I believe every Nigerian family, individual, group is entitled to livelihood. It is the responsibility of all to make sure we have a dignified life. That should be our aim collectively,” Obasanjo said.
