Zahra, the daughter-in-law of the President Muhammadu Buhari, has graduated from a university in the United Kingdom.
Zahra’s graduation is coming amid seven months old strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
Zarah is the wife of Buhari’s son, Yusuf Buhari.
ASUU has been on strike since February 14, 2022, with many students left hopeless regarding the resumption of academic activities.
Nigerian students, under the aegis of the National Association of Nigerian Students, have been staging protests since last week, grounding major highways including road leading to the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, on Monday.
Celebrating Zahra, Buhari’s wife, Aisha, posted pictures of herself with Zahra on Facebook.
“Congratulations to Mrs. Zahra Buhari on your graduation with First Class Honours in Architectural Science. Wishing you all the best!”, the President’s wife posted on Tuesday.
Reacting to the post, the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore, said, “This is the reason their father Muhammadu Buhari shut down Nigerian public universities for seven months now and still counting, because his children don’t go to schools in Nigeria and as you could tell they’ve used your resources to give their children the best education money can buy. “
