Senator Ndume Urges Tinubu to Withdraw Ambassadorial List Over Federal Character Concerns
Senator Ndume from Borno South urges President Tinubu to withdraw a list of 65 ambassadorial nominees, alleging a breach of federal character principles and inadequate representation across states and geopolitical zones. Notably, the list lacks nominees from Gombe State and the APC Senate in Yobe.
The Senate had received the list for screening, which includes career and non-career ambassadors, with figures like Reno Omokri. The matter has been referred to the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs for further review.
