It’s Been Tough, I’m Eager To Go-Buhari 

President Muhammadu Buhari has described his seven years in office as “tough”, saying “I am eager to go”.
President Buhari made this remark while receiving some governors, legislators and political leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) who paid him Sallah homage in his Daura home in Katsina on Monday.
Lamenting on the toll his official duties had taken on him in the last seven years, Buhari told the visiting governors and political leaders that he had not been to his house in Daura for close to a year due to the demands of office.
He said, “The observation that I abandoned my base was made by the Emir of Daura, Dr Faruk Umar Faruk, at the Eid prayer ground. He held the microphone and told everyone that the last time I was in Daura was during the Eid-el-Kabir of 2021.
“In 10 to 11 months’ time, I will come here. I have a better house in Kaduna, but it is too close to Abuja”.
The President explained that the schedule of work was much, saying he recently had to sympathise with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyema, who had to be away most of the time from his family.
He claimed that relative to the resources available, and compared to the last administration, the government had done well in many areas, particularly in infrastructure.
“I am eager to go. I can tell you it has been tough. I am grateful to God that people appreciate the personal sacrifices we have been making. I wish the person who is coming after me the very best”, he said.
