PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari yesterday in Daura, Katsina State said that he has made it clear to his children that he is not leaving anything to anyone to inherit.
The President also said his focus has always been on training his children to be relevant wherever they find themselves.
He further said that he has told female children that they can only get married after getting a first degree.
This is as President Buhari has
charged the youth to seek education, not for government jobs which he said are unavailable.
Speaking when he went to the Emir of Daura’s Palace for the Sallah homage, the President implored parents to inculcate right values in children, including deep fear of God, respect for constituted authorities and living a purposeful life through continuous education
The President also told the youth to arm themselves with skill and ability to fight poverty and to meet the needs of the 21st Century.
He said more time should be given to the coaching of the future leaders, with basic knowledge of moral values, as the fast changing world, driven by new technology, would be more competitive and demanding
The President on a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu was quoted as saying,“I was locked up for more than three years, after leading the country. At that point, I realised and I told my children that your net worth is what is in your head, not what you have acquired in life.
“My focus has always been on training the children to be relevant wherever they find themselves. I told my children, particularly the girls, that they can only get married after getting a first degree.
“They already know that I am not leaving anything for anyone to inherit. My greatest legacy to the children is to ensure they are properly educated.”
