The family of former Comptroller of Immigration, in charge of Anambra State Command, Godwin Ndubuisi Nzeribe, is still in shock over his sudden death, fifteen days after his retirement.
The Statesman gathered that the Comptroller retired in a colourful ceremony on October 24, 2025, after 32 years in service.
It was also learnt that a thanksgiving service was billed for Sunday, November 16, 2025 but that was not to be as death came knocking on his door on November 8, 2025.
According to a family source, he started feeling feverish on Friday and was rushed to the hospital the same day and he gave up on Saturday.
Anambra State Command of the paramilitary agency had organized a retirement ceremony for him which attracted government officials, Nigerian Police and other paramilitary agencies, friends and well-wishers, among others.
At the occasion, the Anambra Police Commissioner, Mr. IkoyeOrutugu, said it was not easy for someone to serve from the lower cadre, and reach the top as a Comptroller.
Similarly, the representative of the Commandant, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Deputy Commandant Ukobi Prominence had commended the retiring Comptroller, describing him as humble man who ensured a synergy between immigration and NSCDC.
The 1990 Philosophy graduate of Cross River State University, Uyo, AkwaIbom, hailed from Ihube Okigwe in Okigwe local government area of Imo State.
