On Friday, September 4, President Muhammadu Buhari and the First Lady, Aisha Buhari, gave out the hand of their last daughter, Hanan, in marriage to Mohammed Turad Sha’aban.
Thelagostimes gathered that two Juma’at prayers were held at Aso Rock on the day, one for the regular Friday prayers and the second for the wedding.
The holy solemnization of the wedding was carried out by Imam Abdulwahid Suleiman of the State House Mosque.
“Today is a great and happy day for my family as we witnessed the wedding of my daughter, Aisha Hanan Buhari to Mohammed Turad Sani Sha’aban.
“I am overwhelmed by the outpour of goodwill and support from family, friends and well-wishers. Let me use this opportunity to thank everyone that graced the occasion with their presence and those that could not, for the understanding that at this time of a global pandemic and the need to strictly adhere to the advice of our health authorities necessitated limited gathering.
“We appreciate your prayers for a blessed union, for the couple as they begin their marital life.”
