Former Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, has disclosed the reasons behind the defeat of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), and its 2023 presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, in Katsina, his home state, during the recent general elections.

Buhari said his party might have taken things for granted during the presidential election because it was his state, and they thought they would win easily.

Buhari stated this in a memoir titled “Working with Buhari: Reflections of a Special Adviser, Media and Publicity (2015 – 2023)”, written by former Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.

“My state, Katsina, showed the beauty of the whole system. In the Presidential poll, APC lost, but they came back to win the governorship.

“Maybe they took things for granted earlier because it was my state, and they thought they would win easily. People do not like being taken for granted,” he said.

Recall that the APC candidate, Tinubu was defeated in Katsina by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, with Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as its presidential candidate.

However, Tinubu went on to win the presidential election, defeating Atiku and Peter Obi of the Labour Party.
