The wife of the Osun
State Governor, Mrs Sherifat Aregbesola, on Monday, in an interview with journalists
described all first ladies in Nigeria as ‘executive prisoners.’
She said that contrary
to the belief that first ladies are having a pleasurable life and
enjoying, governors’ wives had no freedom to live the way they liked.
She said:
“All first ladies are executive prisoners. They
are all here now (referring to security aides) and I can’t go
to anywhere without them following me.
“Who among the First Ladies is free? Who among
First Ladies can go anywhere they like? All the First Ladies are executive
prisoners. We can only dress like this and smile to the cameras but we are executive
prisoners.”
Mrs. Aregbesola said that she and fellow First Ladies get involved in projects in order not to be useless throughout their stay at the various Government Houses.
