Скачать или смотреть Former President Muhammadu Buhari Buried In Hometown Daura

The cloud over Daura was heavily laden with grief, sadness, and mixed emotions on Tuesday. The sombre cloud later shed tears, soaking the soil of the rustic town in Katsina State, as friends and family members laid the remains of former President Muhammadu Buhari to rest in the agrarian community.
It was a solemn moment as the lifeless body of the 82-year-old was brought out of a casket draped in sparkling green-white-green Nigerian colours, and lowered into the earth at exactly 5:50 pm in the presence of grieving children, family members, and associates.

Buhari’s body is lowered into the grave.

Full military honours and other accompaniments, such as gun salutes and tuneful processions befitting a former Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, were accorded to Buhari. Islamic rites also preceded the interment of the former Nigerian leader in Daura.
Beyond being the final resting place of the general-turned-statesman, Daura, a small agrarian town in North-West Nigeria, was also the birthplace of the man known by millions of his cult-like northern followers as the “Mai Gaskiya” in Hausa language, meaning the truth-teller.

Buhari was more than a regional leader; he led Nigeria for a cumulative period of nine years and eight months, both as a military head of state and a democratically elected president, making him one of the longest-serving Nigerian leaders.
Leading the roll call of mourners-in-chief was the former president’s widow, Aisha; Buhari’s successor, President Bola Tinubu; his vice, Kashim Shettima; Buhari’s former deputy, Yemi Osinbajo; former vice president Atiku Abubakar; billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote; serving and former governors, ministers, first-class traditional rulers, religious leaders, among others.

Before the funeral, Tinubu received the body of his predecessor at the Katsina Airport after it was flown from London, the United Kingdom, where the former Nigerian president died at The London Clinic on Sunday, July 13, 2025, after a prolonged illness.
