BREAKING: Formal President Buhari Dies in London Clinic

-

He was said to have taken ill during a routine medical visit abroad and had remained under observation in the weeks leading up to his passing.

Though details of the illness were not made public, the former president was believed to be recuperating until his condition took a turn.


A retired major general and one of Nigeria’s most recognisable political figures, Buhari served first as military head of state from 1983 to 1985, before returning as an elected president in 2015.


His two-term civilian presidency, which ended in 2023, was defined by a sweeping anti-corruption agenda, an economic reform programme, and sustained efforts to address insecurity across the country.

Funeral arrangements are expected to be announced in the coming hours, as tributes begin to pour in from across Nigeria.

We are passionate youths of Osun State and fervent advocates against any despotic tendencies that are afflicting our nation; we are vehemently opposed to Tinubu's attempts to transform Nigeria into his personal domain, where he can condemn Nigerians to poverty and lord over them without any checks or balances, much like he has done in Lagos.
