Muhammadu Buhari emphasized his commitment to transparency and accountability, stating that he sustains himself financially through rental income from one of his houses in Kaduna State.
Speaking during an All Progressives Congress (APC) caucus meeting in Katsina State, Buhari shared insights into the complexities of governing Nigeria and the importance of maintaining integrity in leadership positions.
“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.
Buhari, who expressed relief after leaving office, noted that he now appears healthier than he did during his presidency.
“I look much better and healthier now than when I was the president of the country. Anybody that sees me now acknowledges that I look better than before.
“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,” he added.
The former president stressed his commitment to leaving office without accusations of corruption. “Nobody can accuse me of illicit enrichment. I have nothing to hide,” he said.
