Real Reason I Ran From Daura To London, Buhari
Former president Muhammadu Buhari said he travelled to London to rest quietly after visitors and well-wishers continued to trouble the calm in his Daura home.
After completing his second term as president, Mr Buhari retired to Daura, Katsina, last month.
According to a statement released Thursday by his media aide Garba Shehu, the former president had hoped to find some quietness and be allowed “to have his needed rest” but was hindered by individuals who sought to pay him goodwill visits.
“He chose to go home in Daura hoping to find the type of quiet he wished for himself, but realising that this was not the case, visitors trooping in morning, day and night, he moved out to a more distant place,” the statement said.
Mr Shehu also added that his principal’s travel was an added advantage to enable Mr Tinubu’s government to have the right atmosphere to work on their campaign promises.
“It remains his wish that he be allowed to have his needed rest, and for the Tinubu administration to have the right atmosphere to work on the realisation of the promises they made,” the statement added.
