El-Rufai celebrates 35th wedding anniversary

Nasir El-Rufai and wife Hadiza

First Lady of Kaduna State Hadiza El-Rufai is celebrating her 35th wedding anniversary.

She wrote in a tweet on Monday that the governor Nasir El-Rufai has been a good husband since they wedded 35 years ago and that she would love him forever.

“On this day (17 August) 35 years ago, the LOML and I married each other. It’s been quite a ride. Alhamdulillah. Happy anniversary @elrufai.

“You’ve been a good husband and I’ll love you forever,” wrote Mrs El-Rufai.

The first lady had once said although she was married to the governor, she was not part of the government.

Mr El-Rufai was yet to celebrate his wedding anniversary on social media at the time of filing this report.

The duo met in August 1976 as pre-degree students at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria and got married on August 17, 1985. Their marriage is blessed with children and grandchildren.
