Aisha Buhari has restructured the Governors’ Wives’ Forum, GWF, to encourage cooperation and constructive partnership.
At a meeting with the 36 governors’ wives at the Presidential Villa, the forum was restructured into Northern Governors Wives Forum, NGWF, headed by Zamfara State Governor’s wife, Asma’u Abdul’aziz Yari, and Southern Governors’ Wives Forum led by Imo State Governor’s wife, Nneoma Nkechi Okorocha.
The president’s wife said the two fora would have distinct programmes of activities that would address the peculiar and numerous issues of both regions. According to her, it would also create better opportunity to complement each other’s efforts in solving those common national issues. She noted that the restructuring of the fora would encourage networking, cooperation and constructive partnership.
While noting that as wives and mothers, the primary role was to support their husbands, she stressed that private efforts must be geared towards programmes and projects that would impact positively on the lives of citizens, particularly the less privileged members of the society.
Aisha Buhari stated that with their privileged positions as wives of political office holders, there was need to impact positively on the lives of people.
