The Nigerian military has designated nine senior officers from the Army, Navy, and Air Force to serve as pallbearers at the funeral of former President Muhammadu Buhari. The two-star Generals, all currently serving in Abuja, have reportedly arrived in Katsina ahead of the arrival of Buhari’s remains from London. According to military sources, the selected pallbearers comprise three Major Generals, three Rear Admirals, and three Air Vice Marshals. Their inclusion underscores the former president’s close association with the armed forces, having ruled Nigeria both as a military head of state and later as a civilian president.
