Nollywood actress, Uche Jumbo calls
out Buhari's wife, Aisha Buhari, for calling Edo
women prostitues.
Aisha recently held a campaign
rally for her husband in Edo State where she described the women of Edo State, as “prostitutes”.
In her statement, she said her
husband’s administration will stop the prostitution by Edo women abroad.
Uche took to her official Facebook
page to address the statement. Here is what she wrote;
"Please
NOTE this is not about APC / PDP or who you are voting…..(file under what we
shouldn’t use to campaign as girl – child trafficking is an advocacy I support
and can tell you it’s sensitive ).
Sarah Obozuwa, Founder of the Edo
Women for Change (EWC) called on Edo women to forgive Mrs. Buhari.
“Aisha Buhari was born on
September 29, 1979. As of today, Mrs. Buhari is only 35 years of age. She was
married to Buhari in August 13, 1989, at the age of 9.
This means that Buhari at age 47,
in 1989 was having sex with Aisha Buhari at the tender age of 9, an underage
according to the constitution of Nigeria. So Mrs. Buhari is a victim of
sustained childhood rape and her outbursts are understandable”, she said.
Speaking further, Mrs. Obozuwa
said:
“How
Buhari got Aisha Buhari pregnant at age 13 is a chilling story of a Buhari who
defiled Aisha as a little child while she was visiting Zulai, Buhari’s eldest
daughter who was her playmate. It is ironic how such a traumatized woman now
stands at the vanguard of stigmatizing fellow women.”
As a
supporter of all advocacy for women. … be it domestic violence,child marriage,
women rights or what have you.i stay out of politics but… i shared the last
post when I saw it and made my research… i repeat I don’t care about APC or PDP
…
I have
never taken money from any political party because I don’t EVER want to loose
my right to question people about their statements and if the first lady made
that statement I will still post it as i don’t like using stereotypical term in
addressing ‘issues’ ….
if you
insult me on my page I will simply block you and not sweat it but it wouldn’t
stop me from sharing my thoughts and beliefs or my love for A better
Nigeria.you are free to Google the speech.#UJR – Says Uche Jumbo

Sarah, Pls look for the video of Aisha rally and see for yourself, we should stop politicizing.
folk her is she from Edo state? she should better mind her folkin business
we should be mindful of what we say oh. especially all these political people. How dare she refer to Edo people like that?
she only talked about bad economy and lack of job which has resulted in child/girl trafficking abroad, this is a misinterpretation of what she said. Am Edo and there is nothing wrong if the mentions the issue affecting my community its not News that prostitution abroad is a major problem. am not a politian either do i like buhari,
