Just wondering why president Muhammadu Buhari is not being referred to as Alhaji or does that mean he didn't go to mecca(saudi Arabia)

Buhari - is an honest man and not a religious man- even though many especially down south mischievously or ignorantly paint him as a religious fanatic.

Being addressed as alhaji is not a must

Being adressed as Alhaji is not compulsory

in fact, I only find it popular in this part of the world

It is not that widely practised as a tradition to call people that have gone on pilgrimage as Alhaji in some Muslim countries including Saudi Arabia itself

Meanwhile:

If there is anyone that can me with a small job with which I can at least sustain myself, it will be highly appreciated

Because he’s General

We live in a country where 70% of our people live in abject poverty.
As a result, going on pilgrimage is a big deal.
That's why those who have gone there use 'Alhaji' to get respect from people

he is a mallam.

Always means "stranger" he knows that, might be he dislike the prefix.

Alhaji means "stranger" he knows that, might be he dislike the prefix.

Nah Alhaji seems more like a Nigerian thing. Al -Hajji meaning The Pilgrim.

He’s a fvcking terrorist

He has the Rarest Privilege of entering the Ka'aba...

Alhaji is not a must...
And his former Title sef didn't help he sticked to General Muhammadu Buhari not until he won in 2015... Alhaji Gen Muhammadu Buhari

OUR PRESIDENT A MAN OF INTERGRITY IS NOT INTERESTED IN ANY STEWPID TITLE

I presume that most times when you have achieved some status, academic, financial, political, and even spiritual, people forget the titles, your name in itself becomes an insignia....so you mention buhari, atiku, obasanjo, elumelu, dangote, otedola, adeboye.etc most times without the title.
