He said President Muhammadu Buhari’s led administration has proven its commitment to rewarding those who have worked diligently in positioning the country in a positive light just like the gesture has brought to light the gathering of Nigerians who have contributed immensely to building the nation’s diplomatic relations.

Minister Onyeama commended their service and dedication to duties, noting that the essence of the presentation is to rewrite the historic injustice that has been metted to them in the past years and assured them that their sacrifice will not be forgotten.

Responding on behalf of the ambassadors, Adesola Adejumoke applauded the federal government for the recognition adding that it is a call for more commitment and pledged that they will be good ambassadors across the globe.
