Aisha Buhari endorses the position of a cleric who says: “the way he took her life, his life should be taken also and let it be done publicly.”
For the First Lady, Aisha Buhari, the killer of the five-year-old Hanifa Abubakar deserves to die the way he killed the little girl – with rat poison.
The rat poison death was suggested by a Muslim Cleric in Kano for the killer proprietor of Noble Kids Academy in Kawaji, Kano State. Aisha Buhari said she endorsed the position too.
Abdulmalik Tanko is the proprietor of Noble Kids Academy.

Proprietor seeks forgiveness after murdering 5-year-old Hanifa with rat poison
Tanko, the proprietor of the school, has confessed to killing the innocent child with rat poison.
He had dismembered and buried her secretly at one of the branches of the school.
The victim was kidnapped in December and killed shortly after, though her abductors had demanded a N6million ransom.
It was while trying to get part of the ransom that the proprietor of the school was nabbed by security forces.
According to Daily Trust, there has been widespread outrage over the killing, with #JusticeForHanifa trending on social media for days.
In a video, which has now gone viral, Malam Abdallah Gadon Kaya, a Kano-based cleric, asked that Tanko be killed the same way he killed Hanifa.
He said the proprietor should be executed publicly, adding that President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Abdullahi Ganduje can get this done.
“His (Tanko’s) life is not more than this girl’s life, the way he took her life, his life should be taken also and let it be done publicly so that another person wouldn’t repeat such.”
The First Lady had reposted the video on her Instagram page, expressing support for the cleric’s call.
She wrote “We are behind Mallam’s stance.”
Meanwhile, the killer proprietor has been arraigned at a court in Kano, along with his accomplice.
