Being the chief host of all the spouses of the African heads of state, Mrs. Buhari also handed over the seal of the African First Ladies Peace Mission to the incoming First Lady.

Mrs Buhari added, “We partner with a lot of non-governmental organisations in order to help our citizens, and I have enjoyed that goodwill for the last eight years.
In response, Mrs Tinubu expressed her gratitude to the First Lady. She cited her as an embodiment of great leadership. She also commended her on the manner in which she had handled several matters.
She said, ”I want to sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart because you don’t come into this role and say you know it all.
