President of Nigeria, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) yesterday made a stunning revelation, saying he was an orphan; he had no idea about who his father was and that he spent nine years in a boarding school to acquire education, which in turn enabled him to get enlisted into the Nigerian army.
He disclosed while speaking at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally at August 27 Stadium in Damaturu, Yobe State.Information Guide Nigeria
The president in his attempt to buttress the importance of education, urged the mammoth crowd at the stadium to ensure they send their children to school and make them understand that whatever they have in this world can be taken away except the knowledge they have acquired.NYSC portal
Selling the candidacy of Tinubu and Shettima, the president said a vote for both party flagbearers, would guarantee the sustenance of progress made in the security, economy and education sectors of the country.

“Make sure you send your children to school and make them understand that whatever you have in this world can be taken away from you except the knowledge you have in your head.
“I was an orphan; I did not know my father. I spent nine years in a boarding school and because of my education, I was enlisted into the Nigerian army.
