Buhari's daughter remembers 'kind' former president- BBC Africa
Former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari’s daughter Nana has spoken to the BBC about some of her fondest memories of her father. Mr Buhari died at a London clinic last week aged 82. He was buried at his home in northern Nigeria two days after his death.
The former leader’s daughter remembers a “very funny” and “extremely patriotic” man who provided his children with a happy childhood. She acknowledged that her father was not loved by all Nigerians but says he “did his best for Nigerians and loved Nigeria”.
