“The family paid their tickets” – Presidency Responds to a Question on the Source of Funds for Buhari’s Children’s Attendance at #UNGA 71

The 71st Session of the United Nations General Assembly (#UNGA 71) is on-going.

In one of the meetings, two daughters of President Muhammadu Buhari – Zahra and Amina – were pictured sitting beside their mother, Aisha.

Noticing it, a Twitter user, Adetutu Balogun (@tutsy22) asked the Senior Special Assistant (Media and Publicity) to President Buhari – Garba Shehu – about the source of funds and purpose of their attendance at the meeting.

Responding to her, Shehu said: “None of President Buhari’s children now with the family in New York traveled on government tickets. The family paid their tickets.”
