I now survive on rent from my Kaduna house – Buhari
Former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari recently shared that he lives off rental income from one of his houses in Kaduna State, highlighting how he stayed honest while in office.
At a political meeting on January 25 in Katsina State, Buhari talked about how hard it is to run Nigeria and explained how he keeps himself financially stable.
Speaking in the Hausa language, he told everyone that he owns just three houses: one in his hometown of Daura, and two in Kaduna State.
“After my eight years as a civil president, I have only three houses; one in Daura and two in Kaduna. I have given one out for renting where I get money for feeding,” Buhari explained.
He believes many Nigerians don’t understand how complicated it is to lead such a diverse country.
In his words: “Nigeria is a difficult country to govern, but most Nigerians are unaware. You will not understand the complexities of leadership and the country itself until you find yourself in the administrative position of the country.
”Since leaving office, Buhari says he feels much better. “I look much better and healthier now than when I was the president of the country.
Anybody that sees me now acknowledges that I look better than before,” he said, sounding relieved.
Throughout the meeting, which was held to prepare for upcoming local elections, Buhari stressed that no one could accuse him of taking money illegally while he was president, and he takes pride in having served without corruption during his time in office.

Okonjo-Iweala Says Nigerian Economy now stable under Tinubu
“The reforms have been in the right direction. The next step is growth, and alongside that, building social safety nets so those feeling the pinch of reforms can get support.”
THE Director-General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, declared that President Bola Tinubu and his team have worked hard to stabilize the economy.
“You cannot really improve an economy unless it’s stable,” said Okonjo-Iweala during a meeting today with President Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“The reforms have been in the right direction. The next step is growth, and alongside that, building social safety nets so those feeling the pinch of reforms can get support,” she said.
She added that growth, job creation, and income expansion must go hand-in-hand with measures to cushion the impact of ongoing reforms on vulnerable Nigerians.
