Senator Ali Ndume has urged President Bola Tinubu to withdraw his ambassadorial list, stating it violates the federal character principle. He criticized the uneven distribution of nominees across states and geopolitical zones, ahead of the upcoming Senate screening.
Ndume also pointed out the inclusion of Senator Adamu Garba Talba, reportedly deceased, and warned that the current list could foster ethnic suspicion. He appealed for a revised list that adheres to constitutional requirements.
