Buhari: Leading Nigerians is a tough task

Ex-President Muhammadu Buhari says Nigerians are very hard to govern.

Buhari, who spoke during an interview on NTA for the first time after handing over power to President Bola Tinubu on May 29, said he gave his best while in office.

He, however, said whether his best was satisfactory or not was up to the citizens to decide.

Buhari remembered how critics always pressured him to “work day and night” in order to meet expectations.

“God gave me the chance to serve my country, but I did my best. But whether my best was good enough, I leave it for people to judge.

“Nigerians are very hard. People know their rights. They think they should be there, not you.

“So, they watch almost your every move. And you have to work day and night to ensure that you are competent enough.
