APC Locks National Secretariat in Honour of Buhari

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced the closure of its National Secretariat in Abuja in honour of Nigeria’s former President, Muhammadu Buhari, who passed away on Sunday. In a statement issued on Monday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Felix Morka, the closure was directed by the Acting National Chairman, Malam Bukar Dalori.

“As directed by the Acting National Chairman of our party, Malam Bukar Dalori, the party’s national secretariat will be closed from Monday to reopen on Thursday,” Morka said. He called on APC members and supporters across the country to use the mourning period for quiet reflection and prayers for the peaceful repose of the former president’s soul. Buhari, who served as Nigeria’s president for two terms under the APC platform (2015–2023), died at a private hospital in London, according to reports by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).

His death marks the end of a significant chapter in Nigeria’s political history. Reactions from political leaders and citizens have continued to pour in, with many reflecting on his contributions to governance, security, and anti-corruption efforts. The APC joins the nation in mourning a leader whose legacy continues to shape Nigeria’s democratic path.
