Senate President Godswill Akpabio and other members of the Nigerian delegation have arrived in Vatican City ahead of the funeral of Pope Francis, scheduled for Saturday.

Akpabio is leading a high-level five-member delegation sent by President Bola Tinubu to represent Nigeria at the funeral rites of the late head of the Roman Catholic Church.

Other members of the delegation include the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu Ojukwu; President of the Catholic Bishops Conference of Nigeria, Archbishop Lucius Iwejuru Ugorji; Archbishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Hassan Kukah; and Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, Ignatius Ayua Kaigama.

“As the Leader of Nigeria’s delegation to the burial ceremony of Pope Francis, I paid tribute to our departed Pope, on behalf of President Bola Tinubu and the Nigerian People at the Lying-in-State of Pope Francis, inside St Peter’s Basilica, Vatican City,” Akpabio wrote in a post on Facebook on Friday.

He better used the opportunity to call for help and Isreali airstrike against Islamic juhardist who are wiping out the christian population in Nigeria, can you imagine Nigeria police calling a trailer roaming terrorist attack at innocent christians who were celebrating Easter in Gombe state an accident, Nigeria is a useless country for always handling Islamic terrorist with kid gloves

No armed guards, no siren-blaring bulletproof cars, no segregation and no sycophants everywhere. This is the Nigeria they have denied us. Thunder will scatter Nigeria's politicians.

If the late pope knew how many evil men came to pay their respects, he would be turning in his grave.
