Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, recently shared his difficulties in attending the Fidau prayer for the late former President Muhammadu Buhari in Daura. Obi stated, “It was difficult for me to get to Daura yesterday. There was no flight; you can’t land in Katsina Airport.”
This reflects the logistical challenges faced during the event, which drew dignitaries and supporters to honor Buhari’s legacy.
The Fidau prayer, a traditional Islamic ritual combining remembrance and almsgiving, was held in Daura, Buhari’s hometown, following his burial.
The absence of flight options and the inability to land at Katsina Airport underscore the travel impediments encountered.
Despite these challenges, Obi’s presence at the event signifies a moment of political unity and respect across party lines.
Katsina National Airport’s limitations during this period highlight broader issues of infrastructure and accessibility in Nigeria, particularly during significant national events.
The gathering in Daura not only served as a cultural and religious observance but also as a testament to the enduring influence of Buhari, bringing together diverse political figures in a shared moment of mourning and remembrance.
