According to Sanusi, the crisis in Niger is not one to leave to the government alone as Nigerians and Nigeriens need to be involved in finding a solution.
He said, “I came to brief him on the details of my discussions with leaders of Niger. We’ll continue to do our best to bring the two parties together to improve understanding.
“This is the time for public diplomacy, it’s not a matter that we leave to governments. All Nigerians, all Nigeriens need to be involved to find a solution that works for Africa, a solution that works for Niger, that works for Nigeria, and a solution that works for humanity.”
He clarified that he made the peace move of his own volition using his personal contacts, adding that he would continue to do his best as a leader.
