Minister of Women Affairs, Aisha Alhassan Attends FEC Meeting

Minister of Women Affairs, Aisha Alhassan, is at the moment attending the Federal Executive Council meeting in the State House, Abuja. This is after her recent interview with BBC Hausa where she revealed she would be going against her employer, President Muhammadu Buhari, during the 2019 election.
Aisha in the interview had said that if President Buhari would be up against former vice president Atiku Abubakar during the 2019 election, she would support and campaign for Atiku, who she referred to as her godfather. Some Nigerians have described her as a disloyal member of the cabinet and have called on President Buhari to sack her.
