Wahala dey wey United States President, Donald Trump, don shine eye enter its foreign diplomats matter…

Na so so recall him don do for nearly 30 career diplomats, especially ambassas wey dey represent am for different countries. E get as e be, e no just dey happen for Naija, but we dey notice say Africa dey carry the wahala for head o. Fifteen African countries get their ambassas chop breakfast, including our own Nigeria.

According to wetin some State Department guys talk, dem don send notice to these ambassas say their time don reach to waka come January. This move na part of Trump plan to adjust the way dem dey relate with the world in line with him “America First” policy. E mean say e dey want make sure say people wey dey represent am get him back for this matter. Ambassadors dey serve at the pleasure of the president, so e no be surprise say dem fit open the door give dem to waka.

Some people go fit ask wetin happen to these ambassadors. No be say dem dey sack dem from the foreign service o. Instead, dem go just return to Washington and fit still serve in other capacities if dem wan. Na standard process for any administration, according to State Department. Dem talk say if we no get good ambassadors wey dey align with our goals, wetin we go find for abroad?

Countries wey dey suffer for this recall na Algeria, Burundi, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Gabon, Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, Madagascar, Mauritius, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Somalia and Uganda. Na really serious move wey fit shake some things for ground. Asia-Pacific no dey carry last too, with six countries dey chop the same recall gist; dem include Fiji, Laos, Papua New Guinea, Philippines and Vietnam.

As we dey talk now, people dey react sharply for America. Lawmakers and the foreign service union dey express concern about how this action fit affect diplomatic relationships, especially with dey other countries wey wan function well together. Maybe dem no too happy about e, but na so politics dey go sometimes.

For Nigeria, na serious level we dey talk so because relationship between Naija and US dey jeje since last last due to visa wahala and security matter. The US ambassador to Nigeria, Richard Mills, wey don dey there since May 2023, na him we dey talk about wey don gather momentum to pack him load come back for Washington.

But no be say the guy dey slack, him still dey try work for bilateral issues wit Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, before this recall waka come. Them dey try work on security framework wey go help tackle terrorism for Naija, but di matter don get level wey e fit scatter dem plan now.

So, my people, this na how diplomatic drama dey unfold. As e be now, e go need time to see how this matter go play out, especially for those wey dey hope for better security and collaboration with the US. Make we dey look the space as more gist dey come out.
