Breaking: Tinubu Approves Posting of Four Ambassador-Designates

President Bola Tinubu has approved the deployment of four ambassador-designates from the 68 nominees confirmed by the Senate in December.

The approved postings include Ambassador Ayodele Oke as Nigeria’s ambassador-designate to France, and Colonel Lateef Are as ambassador-designate to the United States of America.

Also cleared is Ambassador Amin Dalhatu, former ambassador to South Korea, who will serve as high commissioner-designate to the United Kingdom. Former Kebbi State governor, Usman Isa Dakingari Suleiman, has been named ambassador-designate to Turkey, ahead of President Tinubu’s state visit to the country next week.

In a memo to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the President directed that the governments of the four countries be formally notified in line with established diplomatic procedures.
