The body of former President Muhammadu Buhari has arrived in Nigeria from London.
Recall Buhari passed away in London on Sunday, July 13, 2025, at about 4:30 p.m. after a prolonged illness.
The remains of the late president were flown into the country on Monday, July 14, under heavy security. 
Vice President Kashim Shettima was earlier directed by President Bola Tinubu to lead the official delegation to bring back the body.
Government officials, military officers, and family members were present at the airport to receive the former leader’s remains.
The body has now been flown into the country and will be taken to Daura in Katsina State for burial later today, following Islamic rites.
