President Bola Tinubu has recalled Sarafa Isola, Nigeria’s
high commissioner to the United Kingdom (UK).
The notice of the recall of the high commissioner is
contained in a letter by Yusuf Tuggar, minister of foreign affairs, dated
August 31.
“I have the honour to notify you of Mr President’s decision
to recall you, signalling the end of your tenure as Ambassador Extraordinary
and Plenipotentiary of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to the United Kingdom,”
the letter reads.
“By this communication, you are now expected to commence the
process of winding down your affairs, and take formal leave of your host
government within sixty days and to return to Nigeria by 31 October, 2023 at
the latest.”
On Tinubu’s behalf, Tuggar thanked the ambassador for his
service and wished him well in his future endeavours.
Former President Muhammadu Buhari appointed Isola as the
high commissioner to the UK in January 2021.
Isola had also previously held the role of minister for
mines and steel development under the late former President Musa Yar’Adua.
