STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENT BUHARI APPROVES RENEWAL OF APPOINTMENT OF 12 NON-CAREER AMBASSADORS

Pres Buhari has approved renewal of appointments of 12 non-career ambassadors, assuring Nigerians of fairness in representation & inclusiveness in all matters of governance.

The assurance from the President became necessary following recent complaints after announcement of 41 non-career ambassadors that some states were not captured.

The renewal of the appointments followed a performance evaluation, which necessitated an approval for continuation in office of the ambassadors, & the President will still decide if they will remain in their current postings.

The ambassadors whose appointments were renewed are:

1. Mrs Uzoma E. Emenike (Abia)
2. Yusuf M. Tuggar (Bauchi)
3. Muhammad B. Madugu (Bauchi)
4. Amb. Baba Ahmad Jidda (Borno)
5. Uyigue O. Oghogho (Edo)
6. Dr. Eniola Ajayi (Ekiti)
7. Deborah S. Iliya (Kaduna)
8. Mohammed D. Rimi (Katsina)
9. Prof. Tijjani Muhammad-Bande (Kebbi)
10. Dr Modupe E. Irele (Lagos)
11. Adeyinka Asekun (Ogun)
12. Sen. Goni Modu Zanna Bura (Yobe)

The President, again, congratulates the ambassadors on the renewal, urging them to keep upholding and promoting the values of stewardship to Nigeria, while bridging good relations with other nations.

Politics is investment, you invest your votes and reap appointments and infrastructure. Total number of votes that Buhari got in South East plus the one he got in South South is not up to what he got in South West again. Therefore, total number of appointment and infrastructure for South East plus South South should never be up to that of South West. A state like Kano that gave Buhari 1.9 million votes should always get far more appointments and infrastructure than the whole of South South and South East combined. That is what we call equity and fairness. You cannot rob Peter to pay Paul, you cannot work in UBA and at month-end go to GTB to ask for Salary, you will be prompted arrested and locked up.
