In a revealing account of the 2023 general elections, the immediate past president of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, has provided insights into why his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), and its presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, faced defeat in Katsina, Buhari's home state.


This disclosure is part of the revelations found in the memoir titled "Working with Buhari: Reflections of a Special Adviser, Media and Publicity (2015 – 2023)," authored by former Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.


Buhari candidly admitted that the APC might have underestimated the electoral challenge in Katsina during the presidential election, presuming an easy victory because it was his home state.


This miscalculation, according to Buhari, reflected a perception that the state's loyalty was assured, leading to an oversight in campaign strategy and efforts.


“My state, Katsina, showed the beauty of the whole system. In the Presidential poll, APC lost, but they came back to win the governorship.


Maybe they took things for granted earlier because it was my state, and they thought they would win easily. People do not like being taken for granted,” Buhari explained in the memoir.
