The body of the late President Muhammadu Buhari is expected to arrive in Katsina at 12:00 noon tomorrow.
Former Nigerian Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar (Rtd.), has confirmed he and the late President Muhammadu Buhari were both receiving treatment at the same London hospital before Buhari’s death.
In an interview with Channels Television monitored by SaharaReporters on Monday, Abdulsalami said:
“Unfortunately, we were in the same hospital together, but I have been discharged. So when I heard the news of his passing away, I quickly went there to condole with the family and see what could be done in order to get the corpse ready to be taken home.”
Meanwhile, plans to bury Buhari in Daura on Monday have been shifted to Tuesday due to flight and hospital logistics.
Bashir Ahmad wrote on X:
“The body of the late President Muhammadu Buhari is expected to arrive in Katsina at 12:00 noon tomorrow, with funeral according to Islamic rites scheduled to take place in his hometown of Daura by 2:00 PM on the same day.”
