Lagos APC Says New Ambassadorial Appointments Will Strengthen Nigeria’s Global Outlook

-


The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has described President Bola  Tinubu’s appointment of new ambassadors as a strategic step toward strengthening Nigeria’s engagement with the international community.


In a statement issued on Saturday, the party’s spokesperson, Hon. Seye Oladejo, said the appointments reflect the administration’s plan to reposition the country’s foreign policy and reinforce its presence on the global stage.


Oladejo stated that the newly selected envoys bring a mix of diplomatic experience and professional expertise, which he said would be useful in advancing Nigeria’s interests abroad. 


He noted that the envoys are expected to promote bilateral cooperation, attract investments, counter misinformation and support Nigerians living in the diaspora.


According to the Lagos APC, the development complements ongoing domestic reforms in security, governance and economic restructuring, which the party believes will provide a stronger foundation for Nigeria’s international engagements.


The statement added that the ambassadors, once deployed, will also be responsible for strengthening Nigeria’s role in multilateral organisations, including ECOWAS and the African Union, while pursuing partnerships in areas such as trade, security and climate policy.


Oladejo expressed optimism that the new appointments would enhance Nigeria’s diplomatic visibility and contribute to rebuilding confidence in the country’s global standing.


He urged the envoys to approach their assignments with professionalism and a clear sense of national responsibility.

The Media Rights Agenda (MRA) on Tuesday called on Federal and State Governments to make human rights a lived reality for all Nigerians in accordance with their constitutional obligation to recognize and maintain human dignity.  It said that by so doing, they could begin to rebuild public trust in government, foster national unity, and unlock the true potential of the Nigerian people. In a statement issued in Lagos to commemorate this year’s International Human Rights Day, MRA lamented that the promise of human rights contained in the Constitution as well as in regional and international instruments that Nigeria is party to, has remained unfulfilled for far too many citizens as the country has spiraled into a jungle where only the fittest survive and human life has little value. MRA’s Programme Officer, Ms Esther Adeniyi, said in the statement: “The Federal Government has duties and obligations under international law to respect, protect and fulfil human rights. It cannot claim to ...
