The photograph of ageing and sick Chief Francis Arthur Nzeribe, with medics around him has gone viral in the social media.

Nzeribe who is now 78, had vanished from the limelight since he was defeated in the 2006 primaries of the Peoples Democratic Party to elect a senatorial candidate for his Orlu Imo state constituency.
He has not been a factor in the Nigerian politics for close to a decade.

He once ran for office as president and was elected a senator in the short-lived Babangida military-Civilian rule experiment and in 1999 and 2003.

:::-- Nzeribe sold guns that eliminated innocent souls. He made blood money during the civil war. I pray that God forgives him but, we should all remember that we shall reap whatever we sow.

You dey mind all this upcoming youngsters generation that will buy 100MB and be spewing thrash, Ojukwu left the comfort of his father's empire and made his way, the world shifts aside to let a man who knows where he is going pass, he was instrumental to standing up for the rights of the Igbos after the 1966 pogrom

Ojuksu was one LUCKY man. Here was a man fighting for his own survival and relevance and roped Igbo people into it. No one even remembers he ran away towards end of the war, instead of dying with our people, 3 Million of them

No, Ojukwu was an accidental leader and at the top echelon of the Nigerian military, Aguiyi Ironsi coup triggered a pogrom and he had to step in and ensure our survival as a people, Ndigbo were being slaughtered nationwide, If he didn't declare a Republic we would have been decimated as a people and bullied to the background. Funny enough most repressive measures against Ndigbo hasn't dampened our enthusiasm, we keep doing big things

Annulment of June 12 election with IBB, his colaborator. Research will show you all the arrogant statements he made and overt actions he took against peoples' wish.
Are both of them not infirm today. Has the money they acquired therefrom not useless now ? Many poor men and women of over 80 years old there are who walk around unaided. Life's lessons.

Do you have glaucoma? Can't you see where I said he was born in Brazil. He was born in Brazil, hence his father gave him Brazilian name. His father's name was Esan da rocha, he built the popular water house in Kakawa street in Lagos island

Bloggers be lying back2back since 1914. It is true that senator Nzeribe is sick but this picture surfaced online few weeks back of the senator attending an event of one of his political protégés in the house of representatives. The people around him are not doctors but family and political associates.

Life!! How are the mighty fallen. I met this man over 10 years ago. He was guided by many mobile policemen, men in suit, PA everything. I was serving at a Disney hotel Owerri then, he gave me the first 1000 naira note I ever touched as a tip. I kept that money for sometime before I spent it. Then 1k note just came out and was hard to see. Plus I was broke those days.
I heard he is / was the highest licensed arms dealer in Nigeria.

Nzeribe is old. Old age comes with different challenges. The only lesson from this goes to the greedy men of today's. Both politicians and business men.
Be prepared for tomorrow.
Not by amassing frivolous wealth at the detriment of your fellow men.
Not by causing damages in your dealings with fellow men
Tomorrow is pregnant. Let your story be positive among men.

Old age ? And infirm ? With all the billions ?
I beg your pardon ? Bro Abagworo, have you lost your sense of history or just being plain mischievious ? I expect you to know better than that. Come to think of that, this man's old age deserves to be mocked.
He allegedly made billions from gun running. Do you know how many souls lost their lives prematurely through that or those killed when such guns found their way into the hands of criminals ?
His billions and affinity with the powers that be did not reflect on the lives of his people in any way.
He was instrumental to the annulment of June 12 elections, an electoral statement made by the entire cross-section of tribes and religions of this country. The first time ever that Nigerians spoke with one voice against poverty, religious and ethnic politics. He was igbo yet denied Prof. Nwosu, another igbo, the international fame and glory he deserved.
He was the founder and chairman of the phantom ABN.
Have you forgotten the number of souls lost while this cries lasted culminating in MKO, his wife and Abacha. Abacha ordered the slaughter of innocent and unarmed protesters along Oshodi-Mile 2 expressway.
His action led igbos into a mass exodus back home when they least expected. In the process, many died, lost belongings and livelihood. Many became pauperised never to make it again. How many of them did he assist with all the money he got from the crisis. Cry me a river, bro.
The sordid tales i heard from my numerous igbo neighbours in Lawanson/Ikate on their return were better imagined. They left with opulence and came back few months later with virtually nothing.
His present situation and some of his accomplices is something that people would normally want to keep a closely-guided secret. Now it's become public. If things like this don't happen, how will people accept that indeed, there is God and Karma ?
The evils that men do live after them from this life until hereafter.
Many poor people senior to them in age with no money for expensive medical treatment are still walking around unaided.
Let him/them be mocked.

Akeem1759:
Authur Nzeribe living like an invalid at his country home in Orlu, IMO State. At the height of his life, he lived in Nixon Hilton Hotel Abuja Presidential Suite for over 20yrs. So also Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos. He rode on Rolls Royce cars IN London and Lagos. Had Mansions in major cities of the world. Had private jets. Was one time an enfant terrible of Nigeria's Politics. He helped led IBB to June 12 inbroglio and Late Abatcha's attempted transmutation to Civilian President in 1998. Today, he lives a pathetic life at the mercy of aides and Nurses. Life is moving on in Nigeria and the world without him. Money, cars, houses, private jets, and jet life are all Vanities upon Vanity. May God Almighty continue to bless us with Good and sound health, peace of mind and contentment today and forever, Ameen.

Leave matter for Matthias. The main player like IBB is still enjoying life in his minna villa. Life is just different strokes for different folks.
