The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the diplomats witnessed the colourful durbar, popularly known as Hawan Sarki and Hawan Magajiya, in Katsina and Daura Emirates, respectively, where royal horsemen rode in grand procession, paying homage to the Emirs.

They also toured the ancient Kusugu well in Daura, which dated back approximately 2,005 years, the Dumurkul Model Smart School, among other historic sites that offered the diplomats a rare glimpse into the state’s deep-rooted history and cultural heritage.
