“Alhamdulillah! Allah has blessed us again. Fatima Bashir Ahmad has majestically graced this world on this wonderful Friday,” he wrote.
“May Allah grant her abundant knowledge and preserve her on the straight path and the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet (SAW). Mun gode Allah!”

When did Bashir Ahmed get married?

Fatima came to the family just 2 days to two years that the couple tied the knot in September 2020.

In May, Ahmad resigned his appointment as the president’s aide following Buhari’s directive that political appointees within his cabinet who are vying for offices should quit their positions.

He, however, lost his bid to secure the ticket as the All Progressives (APC) candidate for the Gaya/Ajingi/Albasu constituency of Kano state ahead of the 2023 election.
