President Muhammadu Buhari said he is an orphan, and his father is unknown to him.
Buhari made this remark on Tuesday in Damaturu, Yobe State, at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally at August 27 Stadium.
While urging the crowd to cast their votes for the Presidential candidate of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and his running mate, Kassim Shettima, the President touched on his life to drive home his point.
‘‘I was an orphan; I did not know my father. I spent nine years in a boarding school and because of education I was enlisted into the Nigerian Army.
‘‘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,” he said.
