PICTORIAL: 10 Months After Losing Ministerial Appointment, Maryam Shetty Marries In Kano

A former ministerial nominee from Kano State, Maryam Shettima, popularly known as Maryam Shetty, on Saturday, got married to her heartrob.

Until the wedding nikkah this Saturday, there was no publicity about the event.

LEADERSHIP recalls that Maryam Shetty missed the opportunity of being a member of President Bola Tinubu cabinet less than a year ago.

In August 2023, Tinubu nominated Shetty as a ministerial nominee from her native Kano State. However, a few days later, she lost the opportunity to high-wire politics.

President Tinubu replaced Shetty with Dr. Mariya Mahmoud, her classmate, through a communication to the Senate, delivered by the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamola, on the same day she was scheduled to be screened by the lawmakers.

Mariya Mahmoud was later appointed the Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Since the incident last year, which left her dumbstruck at the premises of the National Assembly, Maryam Shetty’s public visibility had reduced significantly until this Saturday’s joyous occasion.
