Former Nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo made an unannounced visit to Ivory Coast, arriving late Saturday for a private meeting with the country's defiant president in a final effort to get him to cede power after losing the recent election.

The Nigerian leader arrived at the luxury Pullman Hotel surrounded by bodyguards yesterday. He declined to comment and was whisked away to his suite on the hotel's 9th floor, where he spent around an hour before re-emerging to head to the presidential palace.
