Foreign Affairs › Re: Okezie Ikpeazu Presents His Letters Of Credence To The King Of Spain. by Niok: 10:35am On Sep 16
naptu2:
I need to be very honest with you. I have been watching these things for many decades and the people that are talking right now sound very dull to me.

Heads of state, especially executive heads of state, are very busy people. Almost everybody in their country wants to have meetings with them and they can't meet with everybody. Quite often they have to work round the clock with very little sleep. Apart from their official hours, they often need to have political meetings late into the night.

This is why their itinerary is usually prepared months in advance. State visits, audiences, etc usually don't happen on the spur of the moment, they are usually prepared and planned months, even years in advance.

Back in the 1980s the head of state of Nigeria lived at State House Dodan Barracks. However some functions were performed at State House Marina.

I often watched as the head of state (Shagari, Buhari, Babangida) went to State House Marina (the police would close down Cable Street) and new ambassadors would arrive, one after the other and submit their letters of credence to the head of state. Then they would sit and talk with the head of state, take photographs and then inspect the guard of honour on the State House lawn.

It is after this ceremony that their tenure officially begins.

As I said, the head of state is a busy person, so this ceremony was usually done in batches. Usually between 3 to 10 ambassadors would submit their letters of credence in the same morning or afternoon.

That's why people that are complaining or making a big deal about the fact that Reno Omokri or Femi Fani-Kayode have not resumed as ambassadors sound dull to me. It could take many months after an ambassador is appointed by his country before he can submit his letter of credence. It's not a big deal. It depends on the schedule of the host head of state. This is not something new or strange, it is the norm.

We've seen Reno Omokri being hosted to dinner by the Mexican ambassador to Nigeria, so where is the origin of the funny speculation that the Mexican authorities have rejected him? We've seen Femi Fani-Kayode take part in the meeting between the Nigerian and South African foreign ministers, so where does the speculation that he has been rejected by the South Africans come from?

These funny people think that they are scoring points when they are actually making themselves look very dull.

kedeojo:
Leave those igbos who have not recover from 2023 elecrion defeat were wike played an important role to deny the fake messaih and agulu lieing machine man presidency. How will a governor even replace all national assembly members who are mostly connected to grassroot and he now blame wike for offering them pdp platform to contest.The governor is simply jittery cos pdp will win the state back. Wike and saraki support and the national assembly members will have an upper hand. Wike made it very clear that he is supporting tinubu for presidency under apc but pdp in other position and what is his own offence when the likes of soludo, adeleke are diong same thing. Igbos should learn to move on and leave bitterness cos it is dening them presidency. You cant hate me and expect me to like you, expecially in politics, it dosent work like that. They should leave emotion out of politics.
I wonder who’s the liar and fake messiah
Need I remind you none of tinubus promises came to fruition
Keep it up with the hypocrisy
Allah will pay every one each his own fold of deceit and hypocrisy

At least now he is aware that Gringory Obi a very stingy, selfish, self centered man.

Let him Mr righteous go to North Korea, or Cambodia if he wants to be president of a country.

As for The Federal Republic of Nigeria, he will never occupy Aso Rock as president.

There is no difference between Sowore, Atiku and the packaged fraud. All they do is to promise heaven and earth. Sadly, that is the fantasy that impress overgrown puppies and the more reason they keep polluting the social media with crippled accolades for their fraudulent messiah.

omenka:
This is coming from a man who they said turned Anambra to UAE yet relocated to Lagos the very first day after his successor was sworn in.

Gringori stands out as the emptiest of empties when it comes to the content of one's head. Jumping from one childish balderdash to another, not a mention of what his alternatives are to the status quo.

Atiku has made commitments, nevermind how unrealistic they might sound. They still represent a different path to what is currently on ground. Tell us Gringori, what exactly are your plans besides negotiating with terrorists which you had promised couple of months ago?
