Peter Obi visits Daura to condole with Buhari’s family

Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, has paid a condolence visit to the family of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari in Daura, Katsina State.

Obi was seen at the late president’s Daura residence on Wednesday, just a day after Buhari was laid to rest following Islamic funeral rites.

The visit comes as part of a growing wave of national tributes honoring Buhari, who passed away in London on Sunday, July 13, 2025, at the age of 82.

His remains were interred at 5:50pm following a funeral prayer led by the Imam of the Central Mosque in Daura, Sheikh Salisu Rabiu.

In a final act of military honor, Army Generals and Service Chiefs carried Buhari’s coffin to the graveside, where a 21-gun salute echoed across Daura, closing the final chapter of his public life.
