Nigerians are extremely difficult, You have to struggle day and night to ensure that you are competent enough – Buhari

Former Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, has remarked that leading Nigerians is an exceedingly challenging task. During an interview on NTA, marking his first appearance since relinquishing power to President Bola Tinubu on May 29, Buhari acknowledged that he did his utmost during his tenure. Nevertheless, he emphasized that the assessment of whether his best was adequate or not rests with the judgment of the citizens.

Buhari recounted the constant pressure from critics, who compelled him to “struggle day and night” to meet their expectations

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

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

“So, they monitor virtually your every step. And you have to struggle day and night to ensure that you are competent enough.”
