what is the name of nigeria president wife from 2007 to 2010?
turai yar'adua
in january 2010 and approximately two months after yar'adua left nigeria and was flown to saudi arabia on medical grounds (during which time no nigerian other than his wife and his chief security officer saw him or saw any pictures of him), there were strong speculations in the country that the president was dead, was in a deep coma or was simply so sick that he could not even speak or get up from his sick bed in his saudi arabian hospital. this resulted in a power vacuum in nigeria as a consequence of which a constitutional crisis began to unfold. the president's supporters and cabinet ministers, led by his wife turai yar'adua, resisted the suggestion that the vice-president should take over power whilst the president was incapacitated even though this was what the nigerian constitution prescribed, fani-kayode added his voice to that of president obasanjo, president shehu shagari, general yakubu gowon, ernest shonekan and other former heads of government, former cabinet ministers, former legislators, leading opposition figures and leading members of the ruling pdp party by publicly calling for the resignation of president yaradua and for the transference of power to vice-president goodluck jonathan at that critical time. to convey his view fani-kayode wrote a satire in "next newspaper" and titled it "corpsology: umaru's gift to the modern world". in the article fani-kayode suggested that by insisting on ruling nigeria from his sick bed in saudi arabia and through his acolytes and wife, the president and his supporters were not just breaching the nigerian constitution but that they were also surreptitiously introducing an entirely new and alien system of government into nigeria, destroying democracy and attempting to perpetuate themselves in power through that new system indefinitely. he argued that this was being done by the authorities even where it was clear that the president was already "half dead". fani-kayode defined his concept of corpsology (or "corpsocracy" as he sometimes calls it) as "the rulership of the living by the dead" and the thrust and intent of his satire was to clearly convey the message that the attempt to introduce this hitherto unknown system of government into nigeria by yaradua, his wife and his kitchen cabinet was unacceptable and must not be allowed to stand.
