A day after he took the oath of office as executive governor of
Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni has tied the knot on Thursday, Daily Nigerian
has reported.
The name of the wife has been given as, Ummi Adama Gaidam, daughter
of the immediate-past governor of Yobe State, Ibrahim Gaidam.
The bride, who is currently studying in Saudi Arabia, is coming as the third wife.
Insiders said it was Mr Buni who sought the hands of Ummi in
marriage without initially the knowledge of her father in order to
strengthen their political relationship.
DAILY NIGERIAN reliably gathered the lowkey marriage was solemnized
at Mr Gaidam’s residence at Sabon Fegi area Damaturu, the state
capital.
“The bales of kolanut were presented yesterday, and the wedding
Fatiha took place today in the presence of a few family members,” said a family source who preferred anonymity.
Mr Buni, the immediate-past National Secretary of the ruling party,
All Progressives Congress, APC, was anointed by Mr Gaidam to succeeded
him as governor.
He was sworn-in on Wednesday by the state Chief Judge, Justice Garba Na Baruma.
