The 14th emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, on Wednesday, met with the Niger Republic coup leader, General Abdourahmane Tchiani, in Niamey, the capital city.
The meeting was to discuss the current political impasse occasioned by the recent coup in the country.
Sanusi, former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, was accompanied by the Sultan of Damagaram as part of the Dialogue process initiated by ECOWAS.
This comes after the regional body’s seven-day ultimatum to the military junta to restore ousted President Muhammed Bazoum to office expired on Sunday.
