Amina Mohammed, who served as a Minister of Environment under President Muhammadu Buhari, has claimed that his victory over former vice-president Atiku Abubakar in the 2019 presidential poll, was “a miracle”.
Mohammed, who is now the United Nations’ Deputy Secretary-General, stated this in an interview with Mo Ibrahim.
“I think the fact that we got president Buhari in office this time was somewhat of a miracle, really, it is not easy to do it straight and narrow.
“I think this is a work in progress, democracy in my country is a work in progress, it is incredibly difficult, and that is why I believe that I’d make a really good campaign manager for the next woman president,” she said.
The 57-year-old also said there was no glass ceiling in the Nigerian political space, noting that instead of that “there is a concrete one”.
