Wednesday, July 16, 2025 - Former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari was laid to rest on Tuesday at his private residence in Daura, Katsina State, in a modest ceremony.
Buhari, who led Nigeria from 2015 to 2023, passed away on
Sunday at the age of 82 while receiving treatment at a London clinic.
His body, draped in Nigeria’s national colors, was flown
into Katsina and buried the same day, in accordance with Islamic rites.
What has sparked conversation online, however, is the
simplicity of his final resting place - a plain grave and a wooden coffin, as
dictated by Islamic tradition.
Many netizens have echoed the phrase “all is vanity,” noting
the stark contrast between his former position of power and his humble burial.
