The All Progressives Congress (APC) Women Presidential Campaign Council flagged off campaign train  in IIorin, the Kwara State, Thursday, with the First Lady, Aisha Buhari, at the helm of affairs.
The First Lady’s powerful train included serving and former First Ladies of some states, Mrs. Oluremi Tinubu a Serving Senator and Wife of the APC candidate, the First Lady of Osun State, Mrs. Kafayat Oyetola, as well as the Women Leader of the Asiwaju/Shettima Presidential Campaign In Oyo State.
However, it is not what they said at the campaign that set people talking on social media but a singular act by Mrs. Aisha Buhari.
Dressed in a colourful APC-modelled attire, the First Lady was cut displaying and swinging with the inverted figure 8 symbol that has become one of the signatures of the ruling party’s Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, boldly etched on her two palms.

Both video and picture set the social media on fire, recording 8, 663 tweets within the first few hours of its release.
While Tinubu’s supporters praised Aisha to high heavens for leading the women from the front in the campaign to get Tinubu succeed her husband, President Muhammadu Buhari, tons of flak and darts flew from those sympathetic to opposing parties/candidates, especially, Obidients, as supporters of  Mr. Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate are popularly called.

Female jourrnalist and author, Arabinrin Aderonke (@AderonkeW) tweeted:”Wife of Nigeria’s President, Mrs Aisha Buhari is fully Batified!”
“Aisha Buhari launched it’s 8-8=0 women campaign”. That’s how social critic and rights activist, Abiyos Roni (@AbbaM_Abiyos), captioned the photo.
Of the picture, Mercy Attih (@AttihMercy) wrote: “This is Aisha Buhari telling the whole world that Tinubu is officially 88 years old. Me: INEC should take note, please.”
“So is Aisha Buhari trying to tell us that Tinubu is 88 years old?” Akínyẹlẹ́(@AminuLee) wrote sarcastically.
Djudje N (@djudje12) wrote: “The CHAIN. Our mothers have always been sensitive to the dangers we are oblivious of. Like Aisha Buhari, she warns Nigerians to flee from the CHAINS of BAT. Be wise, be OBIdient!”
For media entrepreneur, OlaSpeaks (@trendwithola), the picture goes beyond the subject. For the Twitter commentator, it offers a golden opportunity to compare Aisha Buhari with one of her predecessors, the hilarious Patience Jonathan.
“Patience Jonathan remains the best First Lady Nigeria ever had,” she wrote. “Aisha Buhari is nothing but a camouflage, can’t even feel her impacts for a secs aside exposing that Bola Ahmed Tinubu is 88yrs old. HE Peter Obi wife will be the best ever, wait for it.”
