VIDEO: Jubilation As Muhammadu Buhari Arrives Daura

There was jubilation as Muhammadu Buhari arrived in Daura.

Glamtush reports that former President Muhammadu Buhari has returned to Daura, his hometown, Katsina State, a few moments after he handed over the mantle of Nigeria’s leadership to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Monday.

This online newspaper understands that the white-coloured presidential plane touched down at the Umaru Musa Yar’adua International Airport carrying the former president, his wife, Aisha Buhari, and their entourage at about 1:10 pm.

The former president had repeatedly mentioned before now that he was eager to return to Daura to continue his pastoral work.

Shortly after departing the airport on Monday, Buhari and his immediate family arrived in Daura and were received by a mammoth crowd.

On arrival at the airport, Buhari was warmly received by the newly sworn-in governor of Katsina State, Dikko Radda; his deputy, Faruk Jobe, alongside the State All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman, Muhammad Sani, as well as the Senator representing Katsina North, Nasiru Daura, the outgoing Attorney General, and Minister of Justice Abubakar Malami among other important personalities.

In the meantime, residents of Katsina State have already started giving thanks to God Almighty as the former president has successfully completed his eight years tenure, coming back home safely.

According to the Senator representing Katsina North, Senator Daura, Buhari left the country in the best situation and has done the best for the country, thus it’s time for him to enjoy his peaceful and happy retirement.

In a video sighted on Daily Trust, Daura residents received the former president with cheers chanting ‘Oyoyo Baba’ which literarily means welcome back.
