Comptroller Ibrahim Accompanies President Tinubu, Service Chiefs in Solemn Tribute to Late Leader in Daura
A moving display of national unity and solemn respect, Comptroller Muhammad Ibrahim, of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Katsina State Command, joined the nation’s top political and security elite in paying final respects to former President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, whose remains were laid to rest in his hometown of Daura on Tuesday.
Arriving early at the Airforce Wing of the Umaru Musa Yar’adua International Airport, Comptroller Ibrahim stood alongside fellow security chiefs to welcome the Inspector General of Police and Service Chiefs, ahead of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s arrival. He later joined Katsina State Governor, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda, and other dignitaries in receiving the President.
A highlight of the tribute came as the Comptroller solemnly accompanied the President to the aircraft bearing the late elder statesman’s remains. Together with the nation’s service chiefs, he stood in silent honour as a guard of dignity was mounted in tribute to the iconic leader.
From the tarmac to Daura, Comptroller Ibrahim joined the Immigration Service’s senior delegation, including ACG S.B Daura (representing the CGI), ACG A. Ambursa, and Comptrollers from Kano, Kaduna, Jigawa, and the Jibia Border Command. Also present was the Commandant of the Immigration Training School Kano (ITSK).
At the Daura residence of the late President, the delegation offered heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family and joined thousands of mourners in the funeral rites. Prayers were offered for the soul of the late President, remembered for his discipline, patriotism, and enduring service to Nigeria.
As the delegation quietly departed, their presence left a resonating message — of honour, service, and a collective farewell to a national hero.
