The Hon. Minister of Foreign Affairs, His Excellency Geoffrey Onyeama has presented Letter of Credence to Ambassador Sauda Remawa-Ahmed, Nigeria’s High Commissioner-Designate to Chad yesterday, 26th December, 2022.
Her appointment to head Nigeria Embassy in Chad is regarded as a pointer to confidence which the Federal Government of Nigeria reposed in her capacity to breathe a new life to the mission in that country and advance national interest of Nigeria.
While serving as Deputy Nigeria High Commissioner to the Republic of Cameroon, Remawa-Ahmed was an outstanding diplomat whose career trajectory, spanning 24 years, remains a reference point to teachers and students of International Relations.
Her profile speaks volumes of her elevation, especially her stint as head of the Economic/Commercial Desk at the Embassy of Nigeria in Madrid Spain (2010 – 2013).
She was also head of the Multilateral Desk at the Embassy of Nigeria in Paris, France (2017- 2020), afterwhich she was appointed ambassador and subsequently posted to Yaounde-Cameroon as the Deputy High Commissioner, a post she assumed on 27th April, 2021.
Remawa-Ahmed is one the Nigeria Ambassadors expected to grace the 10th anniversary of Naija Diaspora magazine set for 2023. The ND magazine has a broad-based readership which includes Nigerian Diplomatic and Consular Missions all over the world.
However, Nigeria High Commissioner to the Republic of Cameroon, Ambassador Olonisakin also commended Ambassador Remawa-Ahmed for the harmonious relationship between him and her, being his deputy.
“She is very hardworking, dedicated and reliable. I wish Her Excellency a very successful tenure of duty in Chad,” said Olonisakin.
