‘I am a suffering Nigerian’ – Buhari speaks on his role in 1966 coup

The President spoke during a pre-recorded interview aired by the Nigerian Television Authority last night.

Responding to a question: ‘Who is Buhari?’ from the show anchor, the president said: “I think I went through hell throughout my career in the military. I was a lieutenant in Lagos during the first coup, January 15, 1966. “If you bother about Nigerian history, you read about coup and counter coup, civil war, coup, counter coup. I was all in it, including in detention for three and a quarter years.Buhari in his assessment of institutions of government rated the National Assembly and the Police low in performance.

However, the President said he expected a higher level of efficiency from military service chiefs, but refrained from blaming them for the escalating insecurity situation in the country.
