New Viral Video Shows Buhari’s Body Arriving in Daura, Nigeria, Sealed in Celotaped Box.

The Nigerian World.

The news as it trends. See the video below. 

A newly surfaced video is making waves across social media, showing the sealed box said to contain the body of former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari arriving in Daura, Nigeria, from London.

The footage showcases a container sealed tightly with tape.

An earlier photo released separately captured the moment Vice President Kashim Shettima and Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila boarded a plane to receive Buhari’s remains following his death at age 82 after a prolonged illness.

However, the new video appears to be different — showing Governor Zulum and other unidentified officials present instead.

If this video is anything to go by, it suggests Buhari’s body was flown in under tight security.

He is expected to be buried in Daura, Katsina State, on Tuesday, July 15, in accordance with Islamic rites.

The video has sparked widespread reactions, with many Nigerians sharing tributes and reflections on Buhari’s legacy — while others speculate about various details.

This is a developing story.

Any new updates, including official statements, funeral proceedings, or footage to clarify the situation, will be added as they become available.
