By Levinus Nwabughiogu

The family of President Muhammadu Buhari has appealed to members of the public, especially their fans and well wishers, to accord them some privacy.

The appeal followed the publication of various acclaimed pre-wedding pictures of their daughter, Zahra, and her would-be husband, Mohammed Indimi, by online and conventional media platforms.

Stating that the pictures were not officially released by the first family, the statement added that they were embarrassed by the publications.

Adebisi Olumide Ajayi, Special Adviser to the Wife of the President, Aisha Buhari, on Media, made the appeal, yesterday, in Abuja.

The statement read: “It has come to the notice of the Buhari family, that certain photographs are making the rounds both on social and conventional media claiming to be pre-wedding photographs of Zahra Buhari and Mohammed Indimi.

“Not only are these photographs untrue, but they are also a source of embarrassment to the couple.

“The couple would like to express that as much as they appreciate public interest and well wishes in their forth coming marriage, they would at this particular point appreciate the public’s respect of their decision to make it a private affair.

“Official photographs would be released at the appropriate time”.
