Tinubu’s Ambassador Picks Ignite Political Firestorm Between APC and Opposition

pposition parties and the ruling All Progressives Congress clashed on Saturday following President Bola Tinubu’s transmission of a fresh list of 32 ambassadorial nominees to the Senate — his first major diplomatic appointments since he recalled all envoys from the country’s 109 foreign missions two years ago.

The nominations, released in two batches and now totalling 35, have drawn sharp criticism from the Peoples Democratic Party, African Democratic Congress and New Nigeria Peoples Party.

The parties accused Tinubu of using strategic diplomatic postings to reward political allies and controversial figures.

They particularly faulted the nomination of former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Mahmood Yakubu, describing it as scandalous.
