Ndume Defends Participation in Ambassadorial Screening Amid Controversy
Senator Ali Ndume defended his decision to participate in the ambassadorial screening exercise for President Bola Tinubu's nominees, despite objections raised over the alleged breach of constitutional provisions. Ndume urged the President to include 65 ambassadorial nominees to ensure a fair distribution across states, highlighting concerns of lopsidedness in the nominations.
The screening process witnessed dramatic moments, including an outburst by Reno Omokri and a heated exchange between Ndume and Oshiomhole over governance experience. The issue of non-career versus career ambassadors and the representation of states like Gombe and Yobe were also raised during the proceedings.
