Shehu added that the Guinean president would also be conferred with a traditional title by the Daura Emirate. Conde, who was earlier received by the Gov. Aminu Masari of Katsina State, was greeted by “excited young members of Daura community and colourful horse riders” at the helipad close to President Buhari’s country home.
