President Muhammadu Buhari has declared that he is leaving Nigeria better than he met the country when he assumed office on May 29, 2015.
Buhari said in fulfillment of his performance in the last eight years of his administration, he would retire to his country home in Daura, Katsina State, after the inauguration of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, on May 29.
The President made the declaration in his farewell speech on Sunday, May 28.
President Buhari said: “I am confident that I am leaving office with Nigeria better in 2023 than in 2015.

“As I retire home to Daura, Katsina State, I feel fulfilled that we have started the Nigeria Re-Birth by taking the initial critical steps and I am convinced the in-coming administration will quicken the pace of this walk to see a Nigeria that fulfils its destiny to be a great nation.”
He, therefore, expressed his appreciation to Nigerians for their support, saying: “I also want to use this opportunity to express my appreciation to a good number of Nigerians who provided their support and encouragement to help me navigate the exciting journey in moving Nigeria forward.
“I cannot and will not forget the millions who prayed for me during my illness in my first term of office. I am constantly praying for you and for Nigeria to thrive in peace.”
