Zahra Buhari’s New Habit
Indeed, marriage, as the popular saying goes, has a way of changing a lot about a man or woman. It is a known fact that many have been forced to kick their old or bad habits, at least for them to be seen and regarded as more responsible.
Perhaps, this is the thinking in some quarters about the daughter of President Muhamadu Buhari, Zahra, who is now married to Ahmed Indimi.
Since she got married, the mother of one is said to be keeping a low profile, while also trying to stay out of controversy.
It will be recalled that until she got married, her name was synonymous with controversies. How? She was first in the news for the wrong reason shortly before the 2015 general election.
Zahra, who was then an undergraduate student at the University of Surrey, UK, had posted some hot pictures of herself online, which generated mixed reactions in several quarters.
Before the dust raised by that singular act could settle, Zahra, who is described as a social media savvy, was accused of living a reckless lifestyle by some online publications and blogs.
However, her father’s media handlers rose in her defence, fingering his opponents as the sponsors of the odious publications.
It got worse soon after her father defeated former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan in the March 28, 2015 general election.
Zahra was allegedly romantically linked with many men, including Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State and later Zamfara State Governor, Abdulazeez Yari. However, both were quick to debunk the story.
As fate would have it, she ended up in the arms of indimi. The wedding, which attracted many top personalities across the country, has been blessed with a baby boy.
Nonetheless, if she will still go back to her old habit remains to be seen.
