<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a> reports that the presidency has withdrawn the posting of Usman Dakingari, former Kebbi governor, as ambassador-designate to Turkey, barely 24 hours after announcing ambassadorial postings.</strong></p>
<p>Bayo Onanuga, presidential spokesperson, issued a statement Thursday night <strong><a href="https://www.thecable.ng/breaking-tinubu-posts-kayode-are-as-ambassador-designate-to-us-ayodele-oke-to-france/">confirming</a></strong> President Bola Tinubu’s approval of the posting of four ambassadors-designate out of the over 60 nominees confirmed last December.</p>
<p>Kayode Are, former director-general of the Department of State Services (DSS), was appointed Nigeria’s ambassador-designate to the United States.</p>
<p>Ayodele Oke, former director-general of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), was posted to France; Amin Dalhatu, former ambassador to South Korea, was appointed high commissioner-designate to the United Kingdom; while Dakingari was made ambassador-designate to Turkey.</p>

<p>Dakingari’s appointment came ahead of President Bola Tinubu’s scheduled state visit to Turkey next week.</p>
<p>But in a <strong><a href="https://archive.ph/Z6eRt">statement</a></strong> released Friday by the State House, Onanuga said no ambassador has been appointed to Turkey.</p>
<p>The statement reiterated the postings of Are, Oke, and Dalhatu, and omitted Dakingari’s now-rescinded appointment.</p>
<p>The presidency did not give a reason for the change.</p>

<p>Onanuga said Tinubu has written a memo to the ministry of foreign affairs to notify the governments of the three countries about the <a href="https://www.vanguardngr.com/">ambassadors-designate,</a> in accordance with diplomatic procedures.</p>
