President Muhammadu Buhari says the best he’s doing for Nigerians may not be good enough.
Buhari said this in a documentary screened on Friday night at a private dinner organised by his family and close associates to celebrate his 80th birthday.
The title of the documentary was “Celebrating a patriot, a leader, an elder statesman”.
Buhari said some people had attempted to undermine his administration.
The President said, “I believe I’m trying my best, but still my best is not good enough.
“Because there are people around that think that they can intimidate me to get what they want instead of going through certain systems to earn whatever they want to earn. And there are some people who want to be clever by half.”
He said he will not miss his time in office because he is being “harassed.”
“I wonder if I am going to miss much. I think I’m being harassed,” he said.
Also speaking at the event, Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo described the President as a “forthright, good and kind man”.
“Mr. President is a very humorous man and I think he would make a very good career in entertainment one way or the other when he retires,” he said.
