Social media users have expressed mixed reactions following the burial of former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, who was laid to rest in his hometown of Daura, Katsina State, on Tuesday, July 15.

Buhari, a former military general who campaigned on rooting out government corruption, has died at age 82, the presidential press office said in a statement on Sunday.

But Nigeria refused to bend to Mr Buhari’s will. Almost 500 politicians and businessmen were arrested for corruption and sent to jail by military tribunals. A new currency was issued to flush out the stashes piled floor to ceiling in the homes of the elite. For many military men this purge was too close for comfort—and too uncompromising.
