President Muhammadu Buhari has said that he would not be hanging around the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), after May 29, 2023, in order not to meddle in the affairs of the office of his successor.
President Buhari gave this indication, on Sunday, when he hosted residents of FCT, led by the Minister, Malam Mohammed Bello, who paid him the traditional Christmas Day homage at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
At the last Christmas Day homage with the FCT community, the president reiterated that he would return to Daura, Katsina State, his hometown, at the end of his tenure.

According to him, his decision not to make Abuja a permanent abode is to allow his successor a free hand to operate and run the affairs of government.
The President also told members of the FCT community that he had not built a new house in Daura or anywhere and hoped to live in his same house, of many years.
President Buhari also used the occasion to commend the FCT Minister, saying he retained the cabinet position for so long because of his honesty and hardwork.
