President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday departed Katsina State, for Yola after a five-day private visit to his home in Daura.

The president was in Daura to commiserate with members of his extended family, who were bereaved recently.

The presidential aircraft took off from Umaru Musa Yar’adua International Airport, Katsina, about 10.30a.m. and headed for Yola where he is expected to declare open an anti-corruption conference.

The conference theme is “Performance Based Governance: Transparency, Accountability and Social Value’’.

While in Daura, Buhari received hundreds of sympathisers at his private residence to console the president over the deaths of two extended family members, Hajiya Halima Dauda and Hajiya Ai’sha Alhaji Mamman.

They also sympathised with him over the auto-crash involving his son, Yusuf.
