The funeral of former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, who passed away at a London clinic on Sunday, July 12, 2025, has generated a wave of reactions across social media platforms.
Buhari was interred on July 15 in his hometown of Daura, located in Katsina State.
A particularly emotional moment caught the attention of many online users — a video showing Buhari’s son, Yusuf, participating in traditional Islamic burial rites. In the clip, Yusuf is seen carefully moulding and placing sand on his father’s grave, surrounded by male relatives who took part in the solemn ceremony.
The ritual, rooted in Islamic customs, serves both as a final act of respect to the departed and a sober reminder of the inevitability of death.

@eeshater:”Yes, he failed us, yes we are all hurt, but at least this man is better than TINUBU, he tried to change Nigeria, but Nigeria was beyond repair, and REMEMBER, the PEOPLE around him destroyed him too, U are acting like u never know the political system in Nigeria. I still respect this MAN, at least he smiles alot, his aura, his energy is none compared to this current president. He is deceased now, where is the humanity left in our hearts ??? All we can say is ALLAH YA JIKANKA 😭😭💔.”
