Buhari: Why I don’t have a house in UK

President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed that he has no house in the United Kingdom (UK).

Speaking to King Charles III in the UK, Buhari said his houses in Nigeria were built before he was elected as President, adding that he feels freer when he has nothing.

The President said this while responding to a question in a 25-second video posted by his special assistant on digital media, Tolu Ogunlesi, on his Twitter handle on Thursday.

“When he (King Charles III) asked me whether I have a house here (UK), I said no, even in Nigeria, the ones I have are those ones I built before I got into government.

“I am not very much interested in having assets all over the place. I feel freer when I have nothing,” Buhari stated.

The President, last Monday, departed Nigeria for London, the United Kingdom for a routine medical check-up.

According to a statement issued by his spokesman, Femi Adesina, President Buhari will return to Nigeria in the second week of November 2022.
