President Bola Tinubu on Sunday, August 3, met with Nigerian Governors sharing boundaries with Niger Republic, where a military junta has ousted a democratically elected President.

Governors of Sokoto, Kebbi, Yobe, Katsina, and Jigawa, attended the meeting which was held at the presidential villa in Abuja.
