The Emir of Kano, Lamido Sanusi, on Thursday said the Federal Government’s decision to close its border is among measures to preserve the nation’s foreign policy in the national interest.Sanusi disclosed this at the launch of the maiden foreign policy journal by the Association of Retired Career Ambassadors of Nigeria.
He added that the decision was meant to stop neighbouring countries from violating the ECOWAS protocol, given that Nigeria was fast becoming a dumping ground. The border closure, he concluded, will not only address the problem of smuggling petroleum products and rice but also prevent a situation where Nigeria is turned into a dumpsite for dangerous drugs.
