President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday said “I have got what I asked for” by being Nigeria’s President and can’t wait to retire to Daura, his hometown in Katsina State.
Buhari, who observed his last Sallah festivities at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, told dignitaries who thronged the seat of power that he is in a hurry to go home after eight years of being in the saddle of governing Nigeria.
Buhari, who was all smiles as he marked his 9th and final Sallah homage held at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, described himself as being lucky to have led Nigeria in various capacities – as Governor, Minister, Head of State and President.
He commended residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) for being tolerant hosts since he was sowrn in on May 29, 2015.
“I can’t wait to go home…I deliberately arranged to be as far away as possible from you people. I have got what I asked for and will quietly retire to my home town in Daura,” Buhari stated at the brief event.
