President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has summoned an emergency session of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) to honour his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari’s legacy and service to the nation.
Buhari, who served as Nigeria’s president from 2015 to 2023, died on Sunday, July 13, 2025, at a clinic in London after a prolonged battle with an undisclosed illness. He was 82 years old.
In a heartfelt statement released late Sunday, President Tinubu paid tribute to his predecessor, describing him as a patriot and soldier.
