The 13-year-old wonder kid, Zuriel Oduwole, who at the weekend met with President Muhammadu Buhari in Washington D.C. on the sidelines of the 2016 Nuclear Summit, has revealed more on the brief encounter.

Popularly known as Zuriel, the young lad who has interviewed 18 presidents and became the youngest person in the world to have been on the cover of Forbes Magazine, said it was an honour meeting President Buhari.

“That morning before the meeting, I read some news to know all that was going on. I talked to the president about education. I asked him about the success of the fight against corruption, what he wanted his legacy to be after he leaves office, and how he sees Nigeria.

“He was very pleased to see me and he said some funny things too. Being president of any country is hard. I know because I have now spoken to 19 world leaders and they all say the same thing about this. Lord, give me wisdom to make good decisions every time. Thank you for ordering my steps, and for putting me before kings.
