The Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, on Sunday afternoon held a closed-door meeting with his Katsina counterpart, Alhaji Abdulmumini Usman.
The meeting which took place inside the palace of the Emir of katsina, lasted over two hours, according to sources.
Both emirs failed to disclose their discussions after the meeting.
The Emir of Kano returned to Kano about 3 p.m on Sunday.
The Emir of katsina palace spokesman, Mallam Iro Safana, confirmed the Emir of Kano’s visit but insisted it was a private one.
“The Emir of Kano’s meeting with the Royal Highness was purely private. The Emir has a long-standing relationship with the Royal Highness,” Safana said, without providing further details.
Other sources contacted however disclosed that the Emir of Kano’s visit could have been prompted by last Wednesday’s resignation of Professor Sani Lugga as fifth Wazirin Katsina.
The PUNCH had reported that Professor Lugga resigned as Wazirin Katsina last Wednesday shortly after the Katsina Emirate Council issued him a query on his recent comments on current security challenges in the state.
