Lateef Are To US: Tinubu Approves Posting Of Four Ambassador-Designates by ryloy(op): 9:10pm On Jan 22
STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

President Tinubu approves posting of 4 ambassador-designates
*Isa Dakingari Suleiman for Turkey


President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the posting of four ambassador-designates, out of the 68 confirmed by the Senate last December.

President Tinubu confirmed the postings of Ambassador Ayodele Oke as the ambassador-designate to France, and Colonel Lateef Are as the ambassador-designate to the United States of America.

Also confirmed by the President is the posting of Ambassador Amin Dalhatu, former ambassador to South Korea, as the high commissioner-designate to the United Kingdom.


Usman Isa Dakingari Suleiman, former governor of Kebbi, is the ambassador-designate to Turkey, where the President is scheduled to begin a state visit next week.

In a memo to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, President Tinubu urged the ministry to notify the governments of the four countries about the ambassador-designates, in accordance with diplomatic procedures.

Special Adviser to the President,

Re: Lateef Are To US: Tinubu Approves Posting Of Four Ambassador-Designates by AMINDA:
France no go dey there ke? Why posting them in piecemeal? It's almost 3 years into your administration? So the likes of Reno will only end up serving for few months before the end of his tenure, if at all.

Modified: In another policy flip-flop that has become characteristic of this government, Dakingari has been dropped as Ambassador-designate to Turkey. This was barely two hours after the announcement. His name might have been sneaked in by one of the Villa boys. Is Tinubu truly in-charge of his government?

He should've posted uselezzzzzz Reno to America so Donald Trump will declare him a persona non grata and detain him for covering Christian killings cheesy

At least those who always say that the US cannot arrest government officials will keep quiet after seeing what played out in Venezuela. Reno will be sent straight to Guantanamo Bay detention camp grin

I don't know why Tinubu thinks he needs another ambassador to France when he already doubles as President of Nigeria and also Nigeria's ambassador to France?

Someone has to wait on Chargoury and cater to his needs while Tinubu is temporarily away to Nigeria.

Even if Reno is posted to any "obscure" country, he remains an Ambassador for life.

The title "Ambassador" is similar to being a "Senator".

Once an Ambassador or Senator, you maintain the title even after leaving service.

You guys swore that himself and FFK would never scale through the Senate screening but today both men are Ambassador designates to your chagrin.

Who God don bless, He don bless o.

I remember when some persons here were rejoicing that Reno had been sidelined and were mocking him. Saying he won't be nominated for the post of an Ambassador. Guy was nominated, they said it was a set up and would be disgraced at the screening. Guy is now an Ambassador, una no wan still rest.
Even if he's posted to Iran, he's an Ambassador for life! That's not a small feat. Hate just full some of una belle. SMH undecided

Like, sometimes you read comments here and you'd be baffled that some persons are full of so much hate and bitterness.
And we wonder why the country is the way it is?

Lol.

I remember when Mr Jonathan was President.

When you land at Abuja Airport, you'll see a sea of Ijaws.

When Mr Buhari was President, virtually every federal agency and institution, even in Lagos, was full of Northerners.

It seems like these things are normal in Nigeria.

Why not just release the whole thing at once since they've all been cleared. The thing is now looking like jamb admission list
