President Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday described politics as a public service and not an opportunity to amass wealth overnight at the expense of the ordinary people.
According to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President said this while congratulating a former civilian governor of the old Kaduna State, Alhaji Balarabe Musa, who clocked 81 recently.
“President Buhari urged other politicians and younger citizens, in particular, to emulate Alhaji Musa’s virtuous life of integrity, selflessness and patriotism in order to make Nigeria achieve progress.
“The President said politics is a public service and not an opportunity to amass wealth overnight at the expense of the ordinary people or the voters,” the statement read.
