Yusuf Buhari, son of President Muhammadu Buhari, is reportedly set to marry Zahra Bayero, daughter of Emir of Bichi in Kano State, Nasir Bayero, it has emerged.

Yusuf graduated from University of Surrey, Guildford, United Kingdom in 2016 while Zahra is said to be currently studying architecture in the United Kingdom.

According to DailyNigerian, credible sources stated that the wedding ceremony would take place “in the next two to three months”.

The source, who pleaded anonymity expressed;

Preparations are on top gear for the grand event. As the tradition provides, the parents of the groom have met with the parents of the bride to express Yusuf’s interest in marrying Zahra.

The event would have taken place earlier, the source noted, but for the absence of the groom’s mother, Aisha Buhari, who recently returned from a six-month medical trip in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The source added;

Now that his mother returned a few weeks to Ramadan [Muslim holy month], it is clear the wedding will take place after Sallah holidays.

On December 27, 2017, Yusuf was involved in a ghastly power bike accident around the Gwarinpa area of Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

He was stabilized for about a month at an Abuja hospital before he was flown abroad for treatment. He returned to Nigeria from the medical trip on March 1, 2018.

Since miraculously surviving the ghastly power bike crash, Yusuf has been out of public eye.
