The first remembrance prayers for former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari are scheduled to hold on Monday, bringing together family members, political associates, supporters, and well-wishers to honour his memory.

The prayer session is expected to feature Islamic prayers, reflections on Buhari’s life, and messages highlighting his contributions to Nigeria during his years in public service.

Organisers said the event will provide an opportunity for attendees to pray for the peaceful repose of the late former president while remembering his legacy in governance, national security, and public administration.

Political leaders, government officials, traditional rulers, and members of the public are expected to participate in the remembrance programme.

Supporters have described the occasion as a moment to reflect on Buhari’s leadership and his impact on Nigeria’s political landscape.

Religious leaders are also expected to offer prayers for national unity, peace, and continued progress, while encouraging citizens to uphold the values of service and integrity.

Security and logistical arrangements have been put in place to ensure the smooth conduct of the event and the safety of participants.

The remembrance prayers mark the first anniversary observance since Buhari’s passing and are expected to be held alongside similar commemorative activities in different parts of the country.

Observers say the event underscores the continued public interest in the late former president’s legacy and his place in Nigeria’s contemporary political history.

The organisers urged Nigerians to join in offering prayers and reflecting on the importance of national unity, peaceful coexistence, and dedicated public service.
