President Muhammadu Buhari
The immediate past president, Muhammadu Buhari has stated that his health improved after he left office.
According to him, since he left office on May 29, 2023, people have been telling him that he looks healthier.
He described Nigeria as a challenging country to govern, citing the complexities of its issues and the burden of leadership.
Buhari shared his reflections during an All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders’ meeting held at the Katsina Government House. The meeting was convened to strategize for the upcoming February 15 local government elections in Katsina State.
Reflecting on his time in office, Buhari said his administration faced immense challenges despite efforts to address the nation’s issues.
“Those outside the corridors of power do not understand the complexities and difficulties facing Nigeria,” the former president stated.
Improved Health After Office
Buhari, who handed over to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in May 2023, noted that his health has been better.
“My health has improved since leaving office. People who visited me told me I look better than before,” he revealed.
On governance, Buhari urged political leaders to fear Allah and remain transparent in managing public resources.
He said, “It is important for leaders to remember that they are accountable to Allah and the people. Transparency is key in managing public funds.”
It was gathered that the meeting, organized ahead of the local government elections, brought together key political figures from Katsina State.
Prominent attendees included former Governors Aminu Bello Masari and Ibrahim Shehu Shema, Governor Dikko Umar Radda, and several current and former members of the National Assembly, alongside APC party chieftains.
