Leadership is never an avenue to be self-serving but a platform to render great service to the people. This is the creed held dearly by the Rivers State-born technocrat in politics and Nigeria’s High Commissioner to Jamaica, Dr. Maureen Piribonemi Tamuno. For those who have been following the trajectory of this rare public servant, they will affirm the fact that Tamuno is indeed someone who understands what service to humanity is all about.
Over the years, she has proven her stewardship to the selfless cause, having served in different capacities. Before her present position as an ambassador, Tamuno has held several positions, including her tenure as a top lawmaker in the Rivers State House of Assembly. Her beautiful story as the representative of her people in the Ogubolo Constituency remains one still being told in glowing terms. Following her appointment by President Muhammadu Buhari as Nigeria’s High Commissioner to Jamaica in 2021, Tamuno immediately hit the ground running by showcasing herself as a perfect embodiment of panache and progressive diplomacy. Since then, she has proved beyond any doubt that she knows her onion very well by taking her assignment seriously as if she was born to do it.
The well-educated Tamuno, with an intimidating profile, has been very proactive and continually putting the country on the global stage. Her assignment in Jamaica and three other Caribbean nations —Belize, Haiti and Dominican Republic— has brought out the best in her with so many awards as testimonials and badges of honour of excellence in service to her fatherland.
