The former President Muhammdu Buhari is dead.
His former aide, Bashir Ahmad, announced the passing of the former president on X.
He wrote: “The family of the former president has announced the passing on of the former president, Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, this afternoon in a clinic in London.
May Allah accept him in Aljannatul Firdaus. Amin.”
President Buhari, who served as Nigeria’s civilian president from 2015 to 2023 after previously leading the country as a military head of state between 1983 and 1985, was known for his stance on anti-corruption and efforts to stabilise the economy.
Further details regarding burial arrangements are expected to be released by the family in accordance with Islamic rites.
