Obiano said, “An illustrious son of Onitsha, Nzekwu belonged to a generation of writers who projected the African identity about studiousness and its relation to an alien civilisation.
“He was a writer with an insight that affirms the eternal truth of his convictions; he was one of the unassuming but great talents that moulded many lives on the studious path to self-actualisation.”
The Managing Director of News Agency of Nigeria, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, described Nzekwu as a “national hero, who bestrode the NAN firmament.”
Onanuga, represented by Mrs. Kate Popoola, NAN’s Head of Lagos Operations, said, “While he was the Managing Director in Lagos, which was the headquarters then, he ensured that everybody in the outstation were paid their salaries and entitlements.”
The National President of the Association of Nigeria Authors, Mr. Denja Abdullahi, said Nzekwu would be remembered for his contribution to the genre of children’s literature.
For a former President of the Nigerian Union of Journalists, Mr. George Izobo, Nzekwu was a “meticulous man, who domesticated every staff of NAN.”

Mexican Mayor weds a female crocodile In an extravagant wedding ceremony
Victor Aguilar, the Mayor of San Pedro Huamelula, took a crocodile to be his wife in the southern region of Oaxaca on Friday, as part of an indigenous tradition intended to bring good fortune to local fishermen.
The female crocodile was baptised on Thursday, and was subsequently dressed in a white robe and had her jaws clamped shut on the big day.
Tradition demands the Mayor of San Pedro Huamelula marry a new crocodile each year, as legend has it that the ceremony will bring fishermen luck in fishing.
Aguilar said: ‘With this ritual we ask for a good harvest, for the sea and the lagoons to give us all the food we need and we ask that everything goes well with everyone here.’

Teenager addicted to drugs sells is father's N7.5M car for N350,000
An unidentified teenager has sold two of his father’s Sports Utility Vehicles (SUV) valued at N7.5 million for N350, 000 in Umuahia, capital of Abia state to buy hard drugs.
Commander National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) Abia State, Akingbade Bamidele, disclosed this yesterday at the inaugural lecture of the symposium on substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking for Senior Secondary School Students.
The symposium was organised by the National Committee on Narcotics and Substance Abuse under the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) in commemoration of the International Day Against Illicit Drug Trafficking.
Bamidele, who spoke on ‘illicit drug and the law’, said the teenager was later brought to the agency’s facility for counseling and rehabilitation.
”There’s a boy at Umuahia that his father brought to us for counselling.
“He sold two vehicles: a Lexus and a Forerunner worth 7.5m for N350, 000.
“Do you know why? The reason is because he was involved in drug abuse and has gotten to dependent stage where there’s absolutely nothing he cannot sell just to buy drugs.
“It was a situation of keep this vehicles for me and just be giving me drugs. You notice when things began to miss at home that something is wrong.”
The NDLEA boss, who attributed high rate of violence crime amongst youths to drug abuse and consumption of illicit drugs, warned them ignorance of the law is not an excuse.
“The cult boys that cut the heads of other students at Uturu and used them for goal posts when they were arrested, we went and tested them and it was clear they were high on drugs to severe another’s head for goals post,” Bamidele added.
