Former President Muhammadu Buhari has said that he left his hometown of Daura in Katsina State for London because he wanted to stay in a quiet place.
Following the end of his administration, Buhari returned to Daura. However, the former leader later left Nigeria for London, where he recently received President Bola Tinubu.
In a statement by his ex-media aide, Garba Shehu, Buhari explained that visitors have been trooping to visit him while in Daura and decided to leave for a quiet place.
The statement read in part, “He chose to go home in Daura hoping to find the type of quiet he wished for himself, but realizing that this was not the case, visitors trooping in morning, day and night, he moved out to a more distant place.
“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.”
