Chief Pericoma Mezuo Nkemakonam Okoye, was a Nigerian singer, songwriter and traditionist, His first name 'Pericoma' could alternatively be spelled as 'Pericomo' 'Perry-Coma' and 'Perry-Koma'.

His music style could be best described as "oral rendition of the culture, proverbs, as well as the tradition of the Igbo people".

He featured in a movie titled Lion Of Africa alongside Nollywood star, Pete Edochie . The movie, which was in two parts, was a biography of his early life.

Pericoma is the father of Nigerian internet personality & musician Speed Darlington.
his community, believed he was a little god. Several displays of "supernatural powers" or "sorcery" as it was often tagged, and back-to-back victories in contests, earned him the alias "Lion of Africa". Watch everything you need to know about him and the Arondizuogu culture below

The real lion of Africa. The story of how he jazzed those men who wanted to exploit him makes me laugh each time I come across that.
They lifted him up but weren't able to drop him.
Imagine carrying someone as hefty as Pericomo for hours!
Those guys must have really felt the heat.
He made them understand that a child can joke with his mothers breasts but it his father's testicles.

Keep resting eze mmụọ!
Your son Speed Darlington is doing so well, man has become the first man to collect the fare he sent for a woman who failed to visit

Arusi Makaja nnukwu mmonwu. Mazi Mezuo Nwa Okoyee Nwa Nwankwo!!

Pericomo Nwa Okoye of Arondizuogu is a saint in my opinion. I’ll pay homage to his family at the right time.

The man was so talented and known for his musical and lyrical skills.

He remains a legend but I don’t believe the ‘Upper Iweka’ story about his encounter with revenue collection people. That story in my opinion is rubbish.

Speed Darlington father
