Retd Justice Sylvanus Adiewere Nsofor has resumed in Washington D.C as Nigeria's Ambassador to the United States. A formal reception in his honor was held at the Embassy on Monday with the wife of the vice president, Dolapo Osinbajo and other dignitaries in attendance.

The 83-year-old Nsofor was earlier rejected by the senate in March as a non-career ambassador for looking too fragile and not been able to answer the questions asked of him when he appeared before the senate committee on Foreign affairs.

Nsofor was later confirmed by the senate after he was re-nominated by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Justice Sylvanus Adiewere Nsofor retired as a Justice of Court of Appeal in March 2005 after clocking the mandatory retirement age of 70.

Africans have really lost so much of their culture. Read as posters here are insulting an elderly man who wants to continue to serve his people.

The man has a lot of experience and knowledge. He was a judge in the Nigeria Court of Appeals.

Please explain how his being a rtrd Appeal Court Judge makes him even remotely knowledgeable about any aspect of foreign relations and diplomacy especially in a country as big and absolutely demanding as the United States of America?? When there is even a far younger person on the same list of Ambassadors who is a Professor of International Relations with specialization on Nigeria's foreign policy

I will be surprised if the US govt accepts or acknowledges this joke.

This explains things. Check the picture/doc I attached. He is Buhari’s Guy. Senate had to conform.

Putting an old 80+ year old Igbo man who can barely walk to be ambassador to a county that has lots of Igbo people is in itself tribal....

The guy will not be able to even hear the grievances of his people, therefore Buhari and his cabal are killing two birds with one stone and getting off scotch free

WAHOOOOOOO! LIKE FOR LIKE! AS WE HAVE IN NIGERIA SO WE HAVE IN US..........................

MEANWHILE, NIGERIAN YOUTH NOW

guy I would have insulted you but looking at your moniker you aren't worth the words I'd have used on you. Go through the thread and see how many Igbo's that have condemned the appointment. May sense never elude you and your household again, amen.

hmmmmm, nawa o, President Buhari no try for this appointment o.

Don't just complain. It's obvious that the young has no hope in the present Nigeria.
This is Nigeria's best and that's why he is representing us far away where he might not even come out of bed to meet his daily official assignments because of poor weather conditions. We are still weeping.
Shame!!!

Petrified leadership.
