Peter Obi Visits Daura to Condole with Buhari’s Family

The Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has arrived in Daura, Katsina State, to pay his respects to the family of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari.

Obi was seen at Buhari’s residence on Wednesday, where he signed the condolence register and met with members of the bereaved family, offering words of comfort and solidarity.

His visit comes a day after the former President was laid to rest in his hometown in accordance with Islamic rites. Buhari’s burial, which took place on Tuesday evening, followed a funeral prayer led by Sheikh Salisu Rabiu, the Imam of the Central Mosque in Daura.

The solemn ceremony concluded with full military honors, as senior Army officers and Service Chiefs carried Buhari’s remains to the graveside. A 21-gun salute was fired in tribute to the former Head of State, marking the end of an era in Nigeria’s political history.
