He explained that Buhari was a disabled person who saw ability in his disability by working hard to pursue his goals and ambitions.
"He was my HND student who later made me his guardian. Everyday he would come to my office to greet me or seek advice on variety of issues", Burra stated.
He informed that despite his disability, the decease was very regular, serious and attentive in class.
According to him, Buhari's respect to all and commitment to achieve his goals are exemplary.
