Inspiring! Meet the Nigerian Senator with just one hand (photos)

Despite the seeming 'odd' of having just one hand, Senator Nneji Athan Achonu realized his dreams of becoming a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as he was sworn into office alongside his colleagues yesterday June 9th. Popularly referred to as the one armed general, he campaigned, contested and won the election for Senator representing Okigwe Senatorial zone of Imo State. He is 56 years old, married with children. More photos after the cut...

    Athan is a mafian! Lost his arm due to stubbornness (as a member of The Boys Company) during the Nigerian Civil war. Has been a contractor to the Federal Government for over a decade. Likes partying. He's very connected to power makers in Nigeria. Have met his latest wife? She is a damsel! The age gap between the couple should be about 3 decades. There's nothing 'inspiring' about one arm General going to The Senate: He's been around the power corridor for a while.

    Obviously, most LIBers have no idea who this man is! Comments on ability in disability got it all wrong for this guy.
    If you wrack your brains a little bit, you will recall a contract given by OBJ administration to a contractor to build a health centre in every LGA of the country; he is the guy!!!
    It was his contract, and so this Athan 'Otu Aka' has got plenty dough.
    Saying about money, cos of the comment of him getting an artificial arm worth millions!
    Just saying....

    e only inspiring, the man is such a creep! Tufiakwa! He's a big whore, going from club to club in Abuja chasing small small girls. He'll just enter with his entourage and start spaying money on girls on the dance floor and when he's leaving he'll carry the ones he wants to carry. Some girls are disgusting I swear! Why won't he win, do you know the people he gave money to in order to win?

    Ikemba Athan Achonu lost his arm at a very young age immediately after the war in his home town of Umunumo Ehime Mbano, Imo State. A bomb (dynamite) caused that acident. He is an astute business man. A self made millionaire and married to an amazing Hausa lady. He should be one of the richest members of the National Assembly. He is objectively stubborn towards any cause he believes in and I guess thats why he went to the Senate to make valid contributions.
    He was massively voted by Okigwe Zone and his people are looking forward to effective representation. He inspiring indeed and even more inspiring when riding one of His Rolls Royce with one hand. Truly he is the "Agu Otu Aka" (One Arm General).

    A renowed fraudster popularly known in those days 'Athan Otu Aka', if you are from Imo state, you might probably remember the Obidiozo and his 419ers incedence (AKA Otokoto) that made the people revolt... well, cast your mind back then,, you need not think very far to remember who Athan Otu aka was to Obidozo...........

    It is only in this clime that we see disability in any form as a bad omen. We discriminate and look down on over sized, one leg, one hand, blind, dumb, ugly, autistic. Hausa, Igbo etc. This is not good and we should stop it. Lets change our attitude.
