Bro, they say Buhari is sacking people, you are busy toasting people whose mind is on the sacking.

Use sense nah, change is here, you don't have to do this "by force" toasting for now until all of you receive your next orders.

You nor even know if na your boss dem sack, na wa o.

Broh... U be male jare... No cum here kon dey Bobo us...

When I heard about this, I rushed to check if the Ambassador to Saudi Arabia is affected. He is!

It was reported sometime ago that the Nigerian Embassy in Saudi treated the former Vice-President, Sambo, better than Buhari's wife, when they went for Hajj. I bet Mrs Aisha Buhari reported the Ambassador to her husband and the idea of non career Ambassadors came up, to avoid the recent backlash that had trailed the vindictive nature of this government.

Why recall Ambassadors when you are still working with GEJ's service chiefs? The first thing every government change when they get to power. Buhari is yet to appoint his key staffs and he has gone over to ambassadors.

The discerning minds will always know. The lobotomised imps shall continue to shout sai baba!

Great news. The outgoing diplomats were appointed on the basis of party loyalty and not merit so they have to bow to change.

so the incoming deplomats wont be appointed on the basis of party loyalty?

Sacking people is not the issue but replacing them with credible and capable people. It shouldn't be a case of sacking Mr Ita Ekpeyong of Dss and replacing him with a retired Lawal Daura who was told that Boko Haram would attack Kano but he did nothing until bomb starts exploding everywhere.

The President should match sacking with competency not nepotism !

u dnt need to tell a disciplined man wat to do.. He already knws who and who is credible...

That Tafida guy has been dere since my secondary sch days and I m now I dey do masters. Chai

I believe the incoming diplomats will be appointed based on party loyalty and merit.

The past administration has an annoying penchant for making appointments based on party loyalty and mediocrity.

Everything is done with time. Change is gradual process and with time, the adequate changes will be made.

Evolution is a gradual process of change, and Nigeria is evolving!.

Nah. He's obviously not. None of you girls deserves a man's attention. The less attention a guy shows, the more attracted you are to the guy.

Oya career diplomats make una dust una "Coat" work don come. Enough of Agbada wearing, Suit wearing and Gucci heels wearing ambassadors.

Sack every sackables and change every changeables but bear it in mind that Corruption and Boko Haram must stop. That was your promise to us. We are counting days either to begin seeing you as a blessing or a curse to nigerians. Who knows if you an angel or ?

It is a normal things.

None of those people is competent. How many of them are career diplomats? How many of them can speak the languages of the countries they are in? It is a regular occurrence in some of our embassies for our ambassadors to be seen using interpreters. Have you seen any US ambassador speaking through an ambassor?

President Buhari will do same along party line.Politicians are all one the same.

Human patience has limitation we don't pray that the change in question will take an equal time that it took Mr. President to become our President. Act now and shame the devil.

Drastic measures

$1= 240 naira today. ..... that should be priority
Bokoharam holding the north hostage..... that is priority

What criteria did you use to judge all the diplomats incompetent?

How many of the career diplomats are competent either or are they not a product of the same failed systems in the ministry?

The call of duty is over for top ranking members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who were appointed ambassadors by former President Goodluck Jonathan.

They were recalled home last night by President Muhammadu Buhari after three years of service abroad.
Prominent among them are a former Foreign Affairs Minister , Chief Ojo Maduekwe (Canada); Chairman of the Jonathan Presidential Campaign Organisation in the 2011 election, Dr. Dalhatu Tafida (UK);Professor Ade Adefuye (USA);widow of the late Ikemba Nnewi, Chief Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Bianca (Spain);and former deputy governor of Oyo State, Mr. Taofeek Arapaja (Jordan).

The rest include a former aviation minister, Mrs. Fidelia Njeze (Switzerland);ex-General Manager, Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), Ibadan, Mr. Yemi Farounbi (Philippines); a one-time governorship aspirant in Lagos State, Mr. Olatokunbo Kamson (Jamaica); a PDP front liner in Ondo State, Mr. Cornelius Oluwateru (UAE); Alhaji Abubakar Shehu Bunu (Saudi Arabia); a former Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General in Benue State, Mr. Chive Kaave (Argentina); a former financial secretary of the PDP, Alhaji Tukur Mani (Iran);and former permanent secretary, Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA Biodun Nathaniel Olorunfemi (Namibia).

Also on the list are: Chief Asam Asam (SAN), (Russia); Mr. Okwudili Nwosu (Burundi); Mr. Okeke Chukwuemeka (Vatican); Mr. Eric Aworahbi (Italy); Dauda Danladi (Pakistan); and Mrs. Katherine Okon (Czeck Republic); Mr. Nwofe Alexander,; Princess Victoria Bosede Onipede (Republic of Congo); Senator Haruna Garba (Kuwait); Mrs. Nonye Rajis-Okpara (Singapore); Chief Eddy Onuoha (Hungary); Mr. Adamu Babangida Ibrahim (Syria); Dr. Sam Jimba (Poland)

They were among the 93 envoys posted out in June 2012.

Authoritative sources said last night in Abuja that the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, had communicated the President’s directive to the affected ambassadors.

They were told to hand over to the highest ranking officer in their various locations.

A Presidency source confirmed to The Nation that some of the ambassadors including the envoy in Saudi Arabia were already on their way back to the country at press time.

The source said: “the President has issued a directive to the Permanent Secretary in Ministry of Foreign Affairs to recall all the political appointees currently serving as ambassadors in all parts of the world. It doesn’t matter whether they have just few months to the end of their tenure.

“I am sure the envoy in Saudi Arabia is already on his way and quite many others should be reporting to the ministry by Monday. I really don’t have a comprehensive list of the number of people that are affected but they are posted in different continents mostly in key European, Asian and American countries.”

The sack is the biggest since President Buhari assumed office on May 29.

Their nominations were endorsed by the Senate on Wednesday February 8, 2012, nearly two months after former President Jonathan submitted their names.

On the list were 32 names of politicians.

The ex-President in a letter to the then Senate President, David Mark, requested that in line with section 171(1) C, sub-section 4 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended, the Senate should consider the list, hoping that “this exercise will receive the usual kind expeditious attention of the Distinguished Members of the Senate of the Federal Republic.”

Of the 88 nominees sent to the Senate by Jonathan, only 87 appeared before the screening committee, while 84 passed the screening. Two of the nominees, Mrs. Sifawu Momoh, Edo; and Mazi Okafor Ojih, Ebonyi, could not scale the screening as the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs did not recommend them for confirmation.

Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu, who was nominated to represent Anambra State on the list of non-career category, did not appear for screening but was confirmed nonetheless, her nomination coming barely a week after her husband died in a London hospital.

Maduekwue was nominated by Jonathan following his ouster as National Secretary of the party in what observers said was a move to placate him.

Kamson, Njeze and Arapaja had all failed to secure the party’s governorship tickets in their states.
The recall of Ambassadors serving in foreign missions is a routine exercise especially where there is a change of guard at the federal level.

Good......... sai Buhari.
At least Bianca will have enough time to spend with FFK. That girl following FFK everywhere should be worried of her place now.

Funny enough I don't seem to blame our President as much as I blame those who they work with. Will anybody say GEJ committed a crime by appointing some Nigerians to work in his administration? Does it mean an adult who is equally qualified to run for president in his own right cannot use his "common sense" to help his president achieve success? I never blamed GEJ becouse he never appointed foreigners to work in Nigeria. He gave those who are stakeholders in the Nigerian project as himself jobs and they failed him and failed their motherland. Buhari should appoint anybody he likes so long as that person is qualified but he shoul not hesitate to fire them when we Nigerians give him our report on them. That GEJ did not do. How can you ever tell a Man's mind or did GEJ gave anybody appointment and ask the person to steal and fail the nation; was their any such appointments? I want to know.

I just pray Buhari doesn't wake up one morning just to sack himself.... Oya Baba one chance oh! sorry oooo. Baba go slow, you can now appoint your Hausa/ Fulani brothers..
