Recall that Legit.ng earlier reported that President Buhari responded to the allegation of Aisha, his wife, and others that his government was being frustrated by some powerful people popularly referred to as ‘cabal’.

The wife of the president had, on several occasions, said a few people were frustrating the president's effort to perform and grow the nation beyond how he met it.

In response Buhari said: “That’s her business… This shows I am a real democrat… What they are saying is different from what is happening. They should come out and say those things they feel was staged managed by the cabal. What the cabal force me to do. They should mention just one thing.”

The president also challenged others making the allegations that a cabal is in charge of his government to substantiate their claims.
