A young boy named after former President Muhammadu Buhari, who captivated the audience at the book launch of former presidential media aide Garba Shehu, has been granted a full scholarship covering his education from primary school through university.

According to a statement by Shehu on Sunday, the young Buhari was granted a scholarship valid for any school chosen by his family by the Chairman and CEO of Trobell Nigeria, Lawal Garba.

At the launch of Shehu’s book, ‘According to the President: Lessons from a Presidential Spokesman’s Experience,’ on July 9, in Abuja, a young boy named after former President Muhammadu Buhari captured hearts with his moving presentation titled “Buhari in Us.”

Dressed in a white agbada and a red cap, he stood confidently before the audience, radiating hope and sincerity.

In his speech, the young Buhari praised the former president’s virtues, trustworthiness, courage, and simplicity urging Nigerian leaders to embrace these values in their service to the nation.

His message drew warm applause and served as a reminder that even the youngest voices can inspire a call to integrity and nation-building.

The former presidential spokesperson described the scholarship a symbol of hope, talent, and a bright future for a child whose brilliance inspired a room full of leaders and citizens.

Shehu stated, “It was a moment that touched the soul and inspired many.

“At the public presentation of my book, ‘According to the President: Lessons from a Presidential Spokesman’s Experience,’ a young lad, aptly named Muhammadu Buhari, captured the hearts of all in attendance.


“Through his striking resemblance in mannerisms and diction to the former President whose name he bears, and with a poetic recital that echoed both depth and promise, he became the cynosure of all eyes. 

“In what can only be described as a heartwarming aftermath to that moving moment, Alhaji Lawal Garba, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Trobell Nigeria, has graciously offered a full scholarship to this gifted child.

“Under the generous package offered by Alhaji Lawal Garba: the scholarship will cover the remainder of Muhammadu Buhari’s primary education.

“Trobell Nigeria will pre-pay in full the cost of six years of secondary education, to any school of the family’s choice.

“His parents have been advised to calculate and present the total fees required.


“And, God willing, a university sponsorship package will follow upon the successful completion of his West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WAEC).”


Shehu urged more well-meaning Nigerians to follow this noble example and support the aspirations of children.

The statement read in part, “This is more than a scholarship. It is a seed of hope, a recognition of talent, and an investment in the future of a child whose brilliance lit up a room of statesmen, diplomats, journalists, and citizens alike.

“We deeply commend Alhaji Lawal Garba for his noble gesture, one that reaffirms our shared belief that when you inspire, you must also support.

“As we reflect on the narratives shared in my book, it is profoundly rewarding to witness new chapters being written like that of young Muhammadu Buhari’s tales of promise, perseverance, and the limitless horizons that await.”
