It was gathered that Mr Talon, who last met with the Nigerian leader in June 2019, was in Nigeria to thank Buhari for ordering the re-opening of Nigerian borders in December 2020.
Buhari had in August 2019 ordered closure of Nigeria’s land borders to check smuggling of rice and other foodstuffs as well as small arms and light weapons.
The two leaders are also expected to discuss security and bilateral matters as well as other sub-regional issues.
