“I was an orphan; I did not know my father” – Buhari reveals
President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed that he never knew his father as he was an orphan from a very young age.
Speaking on Tuesday, Jan. 10, at the APC campaign rally in Damaturu, Yobe State, the president said that he spent nine years in a boarding school to acquire an education that enabled him to get enlisted in the Nigerian Army.
Addressing the crowd in Hausa, he said: “Make sure you send your children to school and make them understand that whatever you have in this world can be taken away from you except the knowledge you have in your head.”
“I was an orphan; I did not know my father. I spent nine years in a boarding school and because of [my] education, I was enlisted into the Nigerian Army.”
He continued: “I want you to strengthen your faith, try your best to uphold the children and family God has entrusted to you. Do not betray that trust.”
that is a story that we all know about…….
But today, you people are toy with children life because of how you handle the education of the country
Once you know that education is important, why did you allow our Universities to go on strike for several months without even care about them?
Those people you put in the affairs of our country education are not competent at all
Why can’t you also treat the students of nowadays the way you were being treated then?
