Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday said he would return to his farm in Daura, Katsina State upon expiration of his tenure on May 29, 2023.
The President spoke during a surprise birthday party organised for him by his aides, even as he was outside the country in Turkey.
The President clocked 79 on Friday.
“I thought that being away from Abuja, I will escape a celebration. The Guards Brigade had written to tell me what they wanted to do on this day. Now here we, far away in Turkey, and I still didn’t escape.
“I look forward to 2023 when I finish my tenure, to go home to take charge of my farm. Between now and that time, I will do the best that is possible to advance the interest of the nation and its people, and carry out my duties as prescribed by the Constitution.
“I thank the Almighty God for this day. Now the work continues,” he said
