This is coming amid photos of Aisha which have been in circulation on social media in connection with insinuations that she may be heavy.

The Nation observed the photos had surfaced after the First Lady landed in Abuja on her return from the Turkey-Africa summit which she had attended with President Muhammadu Buhari.

But Sulaiman Haruna, an aide to Aisha Buhari, has denied rumours that the first lady is pregnant.

Haruna, Aisha’s spokesperson, in a chat with BBC Pidgin, said: “I can assure you 100 per cent that our first lady is perfectly okay.

“She is neither sick nor pregnant as some reports claim.

“Some of these reports are from mischief-makers who don’t mean well.
