President Bola Tinubu has sent a 3-man list of ambassadorial nominees to the Senate for confirmation.
This was announced by the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, at the plenary on Wednesday.
The nominees are Kayode Are from Ogun State, Aminu Dalhatu from Jigawa and Ayodele Oke.
“The list contains three names for now, I am sure others will follow,” Akpabio said after reading the letter from President Bola Tinubu.
News Region reports that since President Tinubu assumed the leadership of Nigeria, he has not appointed an ambassador, an issue that critics have described as embarrassing to the country.
After President Donald Trump of the United States blacklisted Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern, many blamed this on the non-appointment of ambassadors.
