A heated discussion is sparking interest in Nigeria about Cardinal Francis Arinze, a 92-year-old prominent Catholic cleric, and his potential eligibility to become the next Pope.
Many pointed out that Arinze, though respected, is 92 and thus ineligible for the papal conclave, which only allows cardinals below 80 to vote or be elected.
The thread drew reactions, prayers, corrections, and clarifications from Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

He became one of the first African cardinals and served as Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments.
Renowned for his intellect and dedication, Arinze retired in 2008.
He is highly respected in the Catholic Church and has long been a symbol of African representation in global Catholic leadership.
