“I Don’t Need a Jet” — How Buhari Rejected UAE’s Lavish Gift & Diamond Watch, Garba Shehu Reveals in Shocking Memoir

In a rare insight into the integrity of Nigeria’s former president, Garba Shehu, ex-presidential spokesperson, has revealed how Muhammadu Buhari boldly rejected extravagant personal gifts, including a diamond-studded wristwatch and a private jet from the UAE, during his time in office.

Speaking on Inside Sources with Laolu Akande on Channels TV, Shehu shared that Buhari’s decisions were driven by a commitment to modesty and national interest.

> “The president said, ‘If it’s for my country, I will accept. But if it’s for me personally—I don’t need an aircraft, and I can’t maintain it,’” Shehu recounted.


Buhari also turned down a custom-made diamond wristwatch bearing his image from a globally recognized Nigerian designer, further solidifying his stance against personal enrichment.

These revelations are part of Shehu’s new memoir, “According to the President,” which gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at the unshakable principles that guided Buhari throughout his presidency.
