The first lady, Aisha Buhari, on Monday shared a video of Hanan, one her daughters, waving at a multitude from the presidential jet.
This is coming days after Hanan use of the presidential jet for private engagement was greeted by outrage from Nigeria
In the 55 seconds clip, which was by the first lady on her twitter and facebook page, Hanan was seen smiling and waving at the residents of the state.
The footage accompanied by a cultural music, showed Hanan capturing the culture and landscape of Bauchi people.
Hanan’s use of one of the aircraft in the presidential fleet for personal engagement in Bauchi had elicited a controversy, with many accusing her family of abusing power and reneging on their campaign promises of ending profligacy in government
Femi Falana, human rights lawyer, had said it was illegal for Hanan to use the jet on a private trip.
Garba Shehu, presidential spokesman, had defended the first daughter, saying the presidential jet can be used by Buhari’s wife and children.
He explained that the presidency authorised the visit and informed the office of the national security adviser (NSA) to release the jet, adding that the release of the aircraft followed due process.
Rilwanu Adamu, emir of Bauchi, had reportedly invited Hanan to document an annual festival and some tourist attractions in the state.
Hanan was in the news late last year after she bagged first class from a university in the UK.
