”I feed from renting out my house in Kaduna” – Muhammadu Buhari reveals

Former President of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari says he relies on one of his houses in Kaduna State to raise money for feeding.

Speaking at the All-Progressives Congress (APC) meeting held at the Presidential Banquet Hall of the Government House, Katsina State, in anticipation of the upcoming local government elections in the state, Buhari said he did not enrich himself through c0rruption while in power.

He said most Nigerians were unaware of the administrative challenges involved in governing, hence they blame the leaders without knowing that Nigeria is a difficult country to govern.

“Nigeria is a difficult country to govern, but most Nigerians are unaware. You will not understand the complexities of leadership and the country itself until you find yourself in the administrative position of the country.”

He added, “After my eight years as a civil president, I have only three houses: one in Daura and two in Kaduna. I have given one out for renting where I get money for feeding.”

Buhari reiterated his stance against c0rruption during his time in office, asserting that no one could accuse him of !llicit enrichment.

“I refrained from enriching myself !llicitly during my presidency,” he said, adding that he is committed to the principles of integrity and accountability.

Buhari said he has been living peacefully and looking fresh since he left the office. He said anyone who sees him acknowledges that he looks fresher. ”When they entrust you with something, make sure you don’t betray that trust. Greediness will not give you what you want; it is patience that will provide what you desire.”

He concluded by saying, only God, who created Nigeria, can solve the problems of Nigeria.
