Aisha Buhari, wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, has been flown to Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE), for medical treatment, according to Daily Trust.

The newspaper said Aisha suffered persistent neck pains after returning from a condolence visit to Florence Ajimobi, widow of a former governor of Oyo.

The first lady was said to have gone on 14 days isolation  after visiting Ajimobi’s family in Lagos state.

However, after the isolation, the president’s wife reportedly continued to experience the pains, prompting the Dubai trip.

According to the report, the first lady is now in stable condition.

The first lady was last seen in public when she observed the Eid El-Kabir prayers with her family.

Pictures released at the time showed that the prayers were held in line with Covid-19 prevention guidelines.

The president and his family did not receive any guest during the celebrations.

Meanwhile, the ban on international flights aimed at curbing spread of coronavirus is yet to be lifted.
