This comes as delegations sent by ECOWAS, one of which included the Sultan of Sokoto, Saad ABUBAKAR, last week attempted to meet with the junta but without any success.

Sources say Sanusi went there to open the door for negotiation with the junta, even as ECOWAS holds a second meeting on the situation in Niger.
