A former Mayor of Blanco City in Texas, United States of America, Mike Arnold, has mocked Reno Omokri over Mexico's delay to ratify his ambassadorial appointment.

According to Arnold, Omokri's ambassadorial appointment might actually be a sham.

He also stated that moves made by Omokri to be acknowledged by Mexcian officials have been rejected so far.

He wrote on X, "SHAMBASSADOR UPDATE: Reno Omokri, Nigeria’s Shambassador to Mexico.

"Posted in March. Told Nigeria in June that Mexico was too busy with the World Cup to seat him. Final was July 19. It is October. No agrément. No letters of credence. No Spanish press. No SRE statement. Nigeria’s own embassy site in Mexico City does not list him.

"In August, Abuja admitted 65 of 69 envoys were cleared and he was still waiting. In September, he was still 'designate,' speechifying at Mexico’s Independence party in Abuja while the actual Mexican diplomat in the room carefully did not say yes.

"Mexico did not reject him out loud. It did something worse. It ignored him. The shambassador remains seated in Lagos, defending a posting that exists only on his bio."
