'Buhari listened to Aso Rock gossip, believed I planned killing him' – Aisha

Aisha Buhari revealed that mistrust and disrupted feeding routines in Aso Rock led to Buhari’s 2017 health crisis and 154 days of medical treatment in the UK, according to a new biography.

  • On Monday, the State House launch revealed Former First Lady Aisha Buhari saying rumours in the Presidential Villa led her late husband to suspect she planned to harm him.
  • Gossip inside the Presidential Villa produced mistrust and anxiety, prompting Buhari to lock his room and change small habits as alleged surveillance and bugging intensified, Mrs Buhari says.
  • After relocating from Kaduna, responsibility for Buhari's meals shifted to official handlers, causing delays, skipped meals, and suspended supplements; he then spent 154 days in the UK transferring authority to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
  • Mrs Buhari ensured doctors in London prescribed an intensified feeding and supplement plan, after which Buhari regained strength within days and resumed receiving visitors following blood transfusions.
  • The book's State House launch comes amid Buhari's July 2025 death in London clinic and Daura burial, with Dr. Charles Omole arguing specialised treatment abroad reflects Nigeria's health sector underinvestment.
