For Salamatu Gbajabiamila, wife of the newly-elected Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, this is truly her time to shine. Barely a week after her husband became Speaker, she has become a force to reckon with, as many Lagos high society ladies now flock around her like bees.

Salamatu, a known top socialite, was one of the notable faces that created a buzz at the inauguration with her outfit, standing conspicuously beside her husband in a strong show of support during the inauguration.

Her arrival with her husband at the National Assembly complex did not go unnoticed, as photographers were all over, taking different shots of her, and this has sparked off different hues and shades on and offline about the wife of the new Speaker of the 9th House of Representatives.

Salamatu came into prominence last year when her husband presented a brand new Mercedes G-Wagon to her as her 50th birthday gift.
