There have been varying reactions to the video of Nigerian Governors’ wives who took a birthday cake to Mrs Aisha Buhari in Dubai.
The delegation is said to have all taken a trip to the Emirate city to felicitate with the First Lady as turned 51 on the 17th of February, 2022.
The state First Ladies also took a bouquet of flowers from Nigeria to their leader and were seen chanting “happy birthday” songs as they entered her apartment.
However, some Nigerians have taken to the micro-blogging site, Twitter to show their angry reactions to what has been described as a flambouyant waste of resources.
Other reactions on Twitter condemned the action of the first ladies as very insensitive at a time when Nigerians are grappling with the challenges of fuel scarcity, ASUU strike, inflation, and many other issues.

Ọládélé 🇳🇬@Theoladeledada· Nigerian Governors Wives fly to Dubai to present Aisha Buhari with birthday cake while Fuel Scarcity hasn’t be resolved & ASUU has dreadlock 😂 done for them by FG.
I have seen Clowns, but this is the peak.
Ayobami Omoreni@renibams Daddy Buhari is cooling in London, Aisha Buhari is chilling with the big girls (First ladies) in Dubai, no fuel in Nigeria. Buhari is the best president in the world. How I wish he can continue beyond 2023…
Jackson Ude@jacksonpbn Nigeria’s governors’ wives led by Bisi Fayemi travelled to Dubai to present Aisha Buhari with a birthday cake. No fuel in Nigeria for the common man but Aisha and her husband can enjoy life outside of Nigeria while citizens suffer!
Henry Shield@henryshield· Nigerian Governors Wives fly to Dubai to present Aisha Buhari with birthday cake while ASUU is on strike. You’ll expect that the optics should affect them especially as this is a campaign year but they knowNigerians well. I’ve seen stupidity in governance but this takes the ice
