President Bola Tinubu has submitted three nominees for ambassadorial positions to the Senate for confirmation. The nominees are :
Ayo Oke – Former Director General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) and ex-Nigerian Ambassador to the Commonwealth Secretariat, London.
Amin Muhammad Dalhatu – Career diplomat and former Nigerian Ambassador to South Korea (2017–2023), with extensive experience in bilateral diplomacy and trade promotion.
Lateef Kayode Are – Retired Army Colonel and longest-serving Director General of the State Security Service (1999–2007); also served briefly as Acting National Security Adviser.
The Senate is expected to review and confirm the appointments
Since taking office in 2023, the President has yet to appoint any ambassadors, a delay that has drawn criticism.
