I now feed on rent from my house in Kaduna – Buhari

Former President Muhammadu Buhari says after serving two terms as Nigeria’s number one citizen, he relies on one of his houses in Kaduna State to raise money for feeding.
Addressing the All Progressives Congress (APC) caucus at the Katsina Government House ahead of the February 15 local council elections, Buhari reflected on the complexities of governing Nigeria and the need for leaders to prioritize accountability and good governance.
He said most Nigerians are 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 many don’t realize it. Only when you take up an administrative position will you understand the challenges,” Buhari said in Hausa.
He noted, “I look healthier and better now than when I was in office. People often comment on my improved appearance.”
He explained that during his eight-year presidency, he avoided using his position for personal gain.
“I have only three houses—one in Daura and two in Kaduna. I’ve rented out one of them to sustain myself and cover my feeding expenses,” Buhari said, adding that no one could accuse him of financial impropriety.
The former president also emphasized the importance of transparency and accountability as pillars of effective governance, urging Nigerian leaders to uphold these values for the nation’s progress.
