President Buhari Forced to Travel by Road from Kano to His Hometown in Katsina State
President Muhammadu Buhari was forced to travel to his hometown, Daura, Katsina State by road as a result of prevailing weather condition in the country.
The President had paid a 2-day visit to Kano where he was cheered by his supporters. But, due to bad weather, he was forced to travel to his hometown by road as he couldn’t risk his life flying.
His Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, disclosed this in a statement made available to journalists on Friday.
Shehu said the President, who was accompanied to Daura, by Governors Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano and Abubakar Badaru of Jigawa, was received on the border between Jigawa and Katsina States by Governor Aminu Masari of Katsina and the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Umar Farouk.
“The condition of the weather necessitated the trip to Daura by road,” he said.
