KanyiDaily recalls that following their return to Nigeria on Sunday, new photos of the First Lady had sparked pregnancy rumour across the country, with Nigerians wondering if she is actually expecting a baby.

In one of the photos, Aisha was seen wearing a yellow lace kaftan and a black shawl draped over what appeared like a baby bump and the 50-year-old first lady tenderly placed her right hand on it.

Another image showed the first couple seated in a plane. A zoom-in on Mrs Buhari shows a full face like that of a pregnant woman, different from her usual robust youthful visage.
