Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari’s wife has given him a warning (BBC News, 14/10/16) . . .

The First Lady has told him that she might not back him at the next election unless he shakes up his government. It seems she believes that her president husband “does not know” most of the top officials he has appointed.

“His wife’s decision to go public with her concerns will shock many people, but it shows the level of discontent with the president’s leadership.” (Naziru Mikailu, BBC)

Those closest to leadership are often the most astute.
