Aisha Buhari withdraws case against Aminu Muhammad who said she ‘ate poor people’s money’

Aisha Buhari, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, has withdrawn the case against Aminu Muhammad, a student of Federal University Dutse (FUD).

Muhammad, who hails from Azare in Bauchi state, is a final-year student at the department of environmental management.

TSB NEWS had reported that the student was arrested by the police over a tweet that appeared to mock Aisha.

The tweet, which was posted in Hausa in June 2022, reads: “Su mama anchi kudin talkawa ankoshi.”

Muhammad’s tweet, accompanied by a photo of Aisha, loosely translates as “Mama has eaten poor people’s money and is now full”.

Muhammad was arraigned on a one-count charge by the police before a federal capital territory high court on November 30.

After taking his plea, the defendant was remanded in prison custody.
