Senator Ali Ndume from Borno South is telling President Tinubu to pull back his ambassador picks because the list completely ignores federal character rules, and he says letting it slide will just make ethnic tensions worse. The breakdown shows some wild imbalances with the South-West getting 15 slots while the entire North-East only got seven, plus there's apparently a dead senator from Yobe on there who passed away months ago.
Ndume pointed out that some states scored three or four nominees while others got zero, and the Senate screening is supposed to happen next week. He's basically pleading with Tinubu to yank the whole thing and start fresh with a balanced list that actually follows constitutional requirements instead of creating more division.
