President Bola Tinubu has directed the recall of all career and non-career ambassadors from their duty posts worldwide.
According to a statement by presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, the president’s directive is sequel to his careful study of the present state of affairs at Nigerian consulate offices and embassies worldwide, and in line with his Renewed Hope Agenda, he is determined to ensure that world-class efficiency and quality will henceforth characterise foreign and domestic service delivery to citizens, residents and prospective visitors alike.
“To this end, the president further directs that Nigeria’s United Nations Permanent Representatives in New York and Geneva be exempted from this total recall in view of the upcoming United Nations General Assembly holding later this month.
“By the directive of the president, the recall of the affected officers takes immediate effect,” he added.
