AGF Malami takes Buhari’s daughter as 3rd wife, photos emerge
Nigeria's Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) Abubakar Malami on Friday, July 8, wedded Nana Hadiza, one of the daughters of President Muhammadu Buhari.
It was gathered that the wedding took place on Friday at a closed-door Nikkai ceremony held at Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The development was confirmed by one of President Buhari's media aides, Garba Shehu.
Shehu was quoted to have said:
“It is true. The AGF got married to the President’s daughter."
Other sources claim that although the ceremony was marked with a Nikkah, it went off with no official wedding festivities.
Nana Hadiza is the daughter of Safinatu, President Buhari’s first wife. She was married to Abdulrahman Mamman Kurfi and divorced the northerner after a union that produced six children.
Hadiza is now the third wife of Malami with Aisha being the first and Fatima, the second.
