So sad! Aisha Alhassan, Mama Taraba is dead

Aisha Alhassan, former Minister of Women Affairs, popularly known as Mama Taraba, is dead.

Details of are death are still sketchy but it was gathered that she died at a hospital in Egypt.

The deceased battled a protracted illness in her last years.

Alhassan contested the Taraba 2015 governorship election under the Platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) but lost to incumbent Governor Darius Ishaku, who ran under the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

Shortly after her loss, President Muhammadu Buhari named her Minister of Women Affairs.

However, she left his administration under controversial circumstances as the APC failed to clear her for the 2019 gubernatorial election.

She had resigned her appointment and defected to the United Democratic Party (UDP).

Alhassan’s travails in the APC under the chairmanship of Adams Oshiomhole began when she endorsed ex-Vice President Atiku Abubakar ahead of the 2019 elections.

Her statement had caused a huge embarrassment to the APC leadership, as a cabinet member was not expected to endorse Atiku, who had not clinched the PDP presidential ticket at the time.

Atiku contested the 2019 presidential election but lost to Buhari.

RIP MA. TO THINK YOU ALMOST BECAME A GOVERNOR? WOMAN LIKE NO OTHER.
