The announcement came from the Lagos APC through its spokesman, Seye Oladejo, who described the nominees as individuals with the experience and drive to represent the country abroad. The party said the list reflects a fresh plan to strengthen Nigeria’s voice on the global stage.
The development is rooted in the president’s foreign policy direction, which the APC says is built on stronger engagement and renewed confidence. The party believes the nominees were chosen to push Nigeria’s interests in key international spaces and build new partnerships.
The reason for the renewed push, according to the party, stems from the government’s reforms in security, the economy and governance. These reforms, it said, provide a solid base for repositioning the country in regional and global affairs.
The Lagos APC expects the new envoys, once cleared by the Senate, to take up active roles in shaping Nigeria’s image abroad. The party says the country will no longer take a passive seat in diplomatic conversations but step forward with clearer goals and stronger representation.
The statement also noted that the administration plans to reinforce Nigeria’s role in ECOWAS and the African Union, while deepening economic diplomacy and improving protection for Nigerians living abroad. The party expressed confidence that the nominees will help lift the country’s standing in a fast-changing world.
