Tinubu yet to appoint ambassadors, says FG

 The federal ministry of foreign affairs says President Bola
Tinubu is yet to appoint ambassadors.

 

The foreign ministry was responding to a purported list of
nominees appointed by the president as ambassadors to various countries, which
has been circulating on social media platforms.

 

In a statement on Sunday, Kimiebi Imomotimi Ebienfa, acting
spokesperson of the ministry, said the public should disregard the list.

 

“The Ministry wishes to state unequivocally that the
appointment of Ambassadors is the prerogative of Mr. President and no such
appointments have been made in that regard,” Ebienfa said.

 

In September 2023, Tinubu recalled of all career and
non-career ambassadors serving in different countries.

 

Since that time, Nigeria’s over 70 embassies, 22 high
commissions, and over 100 missions worldwide have been without envoys, a
development that is seen to be hurting the country’s foreign policy stance.
