Tinubu Pays Last Respect As Buhari Buried In His Daura Compound

President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday, 15 July, 2025 paid his final respects to his predecessor in office President Muhammadu Buhari, who was laid to rest in his hometown, Daura, Katsina State.
Buhari’s burial, held according to Islamic rites, signaled the end of a solemn national farewell to a leader who once steered the country both as military Head of State and as a democratically elected President.
His remains were interred at 5:50pm after a funeral prayer was led by the Imam of the Central Mosque in Daura, Sheikh Salisu Rabiu. In a powerful display of tradition and military honor, Army Generals and Service Chiefs bore the coffin to the graveside, where a 21-gun salute echoed across Daura, sealing the final chapter of Buhari’s public life.
