First Lady of Nigeria

The First Lady of Nigeria is an unconstitutional title given to the wife of the President of Nigeria. The current Wife of the President is Aisha Muhammadu Buhari who has held the position since 29 May 2015.

The Constitution of Nigeria does not create an office for the country's First Lady or potential First Gentleman. However, official funding and staff have been allocated to the First Lady of Nigeria since the country's independence. The First Lady is addressed by the title, Her Excellency.

Stella Obasanjo is the only Nigerian First Lady to have died in office.
