Ex-President Muhammadu Buhari has advised the members of the Progressive Governors Forum to adopt a citizen-centric approach, saying that leadership presents both a challenge and an opportunity.

He stated that balancing the two would significantly advance national progress.

In a statement signed by his spokesman, Garba Shehu on  Wednesday.

Buhari stated this after he hosted a delegation of APC governors led by Imo state Governor Hope Uzodinma at his Kaduna residence recently.

He expressed confidence in the progress being made by the governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress and reiterated his call for continued dedication to the nation’s progress.

He also said, “Leaders should accord importance to the welfare of the people, not themselves, offering his personal example of leaving office with the same physical assets he had before his presidency.”
