I did my best, Nigerians difficult to lead- Ex-President, Buhari

Immediate past Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari says Nigerians are extremely difficult to lead.

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 did his best while in office.

He, however, said whether his best was good enough or not, is left for the citizens to judge.

Buhari recalled how critics always put him under pressure to “struggle day and night” in a bid to meet expectations.

“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.”
