Interestingly,
added facts have started emerging over the controversial closure of the
Children’s Church of the Aso Villa Chapel, located within the Nigerian
Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The Trent has
authoritatively revealed that Aisha Buhari, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari
is moving for the closure of Aso Rock chapel, so as to use the place for her
personal – state-of-the-art spa – project.
Recall,
the media house broke the story exposing President Muhammadu Buhari’s moves to
shutdown Christian activities within Presidential Villa on September 3, 2015.
Here
is an excerpt from The Trent publication below:
Our
investigations have now uncovered the mystery “personal project” of Aisha
Buhari. According to a source close to the Presidency, the wife of the
President is converting the Children’s Church of the Aso Villa Chapel to a
state-of-the-art spa for her private use.
“We
have heard a lot of things being reported in the media, but, let me tell you
the whole truth, Mrs. Buhari is converting the place to a spa,” our source told
our reporter, on condition of anonymity. “She moved in boxes and bags of
creams, soaps, and other cosmetics she sold in her spa in Kaduna.”
According
to the source, when Aisha Buhari moved to the Presidential residence of the Aso
Rock Villa, she discovered there wasn’t enough space for her belongings which
included the consumables and sundry spa equipment she used in her beauty and
wellness business establishment in Kaduna. So, she decided to shop for an
alternative space within the Villa premises, an exercise which ended with her
ill-advised decision to convert the Children’s Church to her personal spa.
“The
Children’s Church is under permanent lock-and-key,” our source said. “The
President’s wife took over the place and plans to install a new jacuzzi and new
sauna and replace some old equipment which she brought from Kaduna. Renovations
and fitting of new equipment were underway before the work was stalled.”
Mrs.
Buhari is founder and managing director of Hanzy Spa and Hanzy Beauty
Institute, “one of the biggest spas and beauty institutes in the country
located in a high-brow area of Ungwan-Rimi Government Residential Area in
Kaduna”, according to The Punch. “It is the first beauty institute in
Northern Nigeria and a National Board of Technical Education accredited vocational
training centre and registered by the Ministry of Education.”
The May report,
says that when General Buhari won the Presidential elections in March, 2015,
the First Lady closed her business, a “beehive of activities”, and relocated
with her husband to Abuja where he resumed office as President. She, however,
did not close down the Abuja branch of her beauty business located in Wuse 2.
A
Borno-based Pro Buhari Pastor Reveals More
According
to a report by Daily Post, the closure of the children’s section
of the chapel has been confirmed by a Borno State-based cleric, Kallamu Musa
Dikwa. He is the same pro-Buhari preacher who played a prominent and
controversial role in mobilizing Christian votes for Buhari during the March
elections.
Dikwa
expressed surprise that President Muhammadu Buhari would allow his wife to take
such an action on a Federal Government property and dared Mrs. Buhari to
publicly deny his claims. The cleric also challenged the presidency to release most
recent photos of the children’s church.
He
said: “Let them not deceive Nigerians. I can confirm to you that that section
of the church has been converted to a storage room by Mrs. Aisha Buhari, wife
of President Muhammadu Buhari.
“I
don’t want to think that the President authorised her action, Nevertheless, he
should have done something by now because it is a serious matter.
When
asked of the items that are being put in the children’s room following its
closure, Dikwa said: “I really don’t know, but I was reliably informed that she
brought some items to the villa and could not get a place to keep them.
“To
our dismay, she directed some staff to move the items inside the children’s
church and then ordered it locked. The security operatives that initially
blocked its entrance did so with her knowledge and I dare her to publicly deny.
“What
my source told me is that Mrs Buhari said the children’s church is a safer
place to keep the items. This is not right. Why would she insist on that
particular building in a place as big as the villa? Is she saying there is no
other safe place apart from a place of worship?”
Dikwa
therefore called on President Buhari to salvage the sorry situation saying: “He
promised to unite Nigeria; he promised not to marginalize any religion but what
is going on inside Aso Rock is different.
