The Katsina State Governor, Rt. Hon. Aminu Bello Masari yesterday attended the Niger Republic Independence celebrations anniversary at Zindar, the state of Damagara, Republic of Niger.

Also in company of President Muhammadu Buhari, were the Governors of Kaduna, Nasir Ahmad Elrufai, Jigawa Badaru Abubakar and top echelon of the Nigerian Government.
Niger was colonised by France and was granted independence on the 18th of Dec, 1958. Two years later, Nigeria gained its own from the colonial Britain. In 2005, the Government of the country dedicated the independence day as a holiday and a day to celebrate the country's freedom.
Niger Republic is a bordering Nation with Katsina State, which leads to so many bilateral ties for both economic and social development.
@katgovmedia reports that Masari was accompanied by the Secretary to the State Government, Alh. Mustapha Muhammad Inuwa, Katsina business Mogul, Alh. Dahiru Bara'u Mangal and top state government functionaries.
