PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari moved into Aso Villa yesterday, three weeks after he was sworn in.
It was gathered that the President broke his fast at the Villa and passed the night there.
A source who confirmed the development to The Guardian, said the President’s wife, Aisha had moved into the Villa since last Thursday.
Buhari had been living at the Defence House since he came to power while awaiting the completion of renovation being handled by the construction giant, Julius Berger Plc.
There had been concerns in some quarters that Buhari may have shunned the Villa in preference to the Defence House due to his Spartan lifestyle.
