A heavy security presence has been observed at the Daura residence of late former President Muhammadu Buhari in Katsina State as preparations intensify ahead of his final burial.


Buhari’s body is expected to arrive from London shortly, and the atmosphere around his private compound is solemn but highly secured. On Tuesday morning, July 15, operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) and soldiers of the Nigerian Army were seen guarding the entrance to the residence, according to Daily Trust.


In addition, officers from the Nigerian Police Force and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) were strategically stationed around the area to ensure peace and order as mourners and officials gather.


Sources within the compound confirmed that grave-digging activities had already begun in preparation for the burial, which is expected to take place shortly after the arrival of the late president's remains.


President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is scheduled to personally receive Buhari’s body at the Umaru Musa Yar’Adua International Airport in Katsina, after which the remains will be transported to Daura for interment at his private residence.


The final rites will include the traditional Islamic Jana’iza prayers and will be attended by top government officials, family members, and well-wishers.
