Wife of the President, Mrs Aisha Muhammadu Buhari, on Wednesday disassociated herself from Amina Mohammed arrested by the operatives of the State Security Service (SSS) for allegedly duping politicians and businessmen.
In a statement issued by her Director of Information, Mr. Suleiman Haruna, Mrs Buhari said Amina Mohammed is not and was never her associate and that the Mariyatu she allegedly mentioned as a co-conspirator is not her sister.
The statement reads: “Her Excellency, wife of the President of Nigeria, Mrs. Aisha Muhammadu Buhari, has been following events related to investigation of a fraud suspect by the Department of State Services (DSS), and wishes to dissociate herself from all the individuals involved in the stated fraud case.
“She wishes to state categorically that Mariyatu is not her sister and the so called Amina Mohammed is not and was never her associate and is therefore not in a position to transact any business in her name or that of her office.
“She wishes to further state that she does not run businesses in her office, therefore whoever does business with anyone in her name will be doing so at his/her own risk.
“As for staff of her office, she wishes to state that anyone found to be engaged in fraudulent dealings, will face the full wrath of the law.”
