In a recent revelation, former President Muhammadu Buhari shed light on the motive behind his public apology to Nigerians before leaving office in 2023. Speaking at a book launch in Abuja, Buhari emphasized that his decision was not driven by a desire to deliberately cause pain or anguish. Rather, he explained that it was a necessary decision, and at the end of the day, extending an apology became an essential step.

The disclosure took place during the launch of two publications about the ex-president. The first, "Working with Buhari: Reflections of a Special Adviser on Media and Publicity (2015–2023)," authored by Femi Adesina, and the second, a volume of five books titled "Muhammadu Buhari: The Nigerian Legacy (2015–2023)," edited by Dr. Udu Yakubu. This revelation adds a layer of context to Buhari's presidency and raises questions about the complexities faced during his term.
