APC MOURNS DEATH OF PARTY CHIEFTAIN DR CHAMBERLAIN DUNKWU

The All Progressives Congress has mourned the death of a party chieftain, Dr Chamberlain Dunkwu, who died at age 54. The national publicity secretary of the APC, Felix Morka, announced the passing in a statement, describing the late Dr Dunkwu as an energetic, selfless and loyal party man who contributed enormously to building and strengthening the party in his native Ika Federal Constituency, Delta state and beyond.

Until his passing on March 7 2026, Dr Dunkwu served as Deputy Chief of Staff Legislative to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt Hon Tajudeen Abbas GCON, Felix Morka said. Prior to that, he was a Special Adviser on Members Affairs to the Speaker of the 9th House of Representatives, Rt Hon Femi Gbajabiamila.

Felix Morka noted that Dr Dunkwu was a Knight of Saint Christopher KSC and President of the Nigerian Aquatics Federation NAqF, adding that he lived a vibrant life of service and philanthropy that touched many within and beyond his homeland. His exit has created a yawning void that will be difficult to fill, the APC spokesman stated.

Our party prays to God to grant his immediate family the fortitude to bear this huge loss, Felix Morka said. And may He comfort all members of the APC family in Ika Federal Constituency, Delta State and around the country at this difficult time.

In a poignant tribute, Felix Morka added, Amazing Grace Amazing Grace May His Grace lead you home, and may it be true for you as proclaimed in the old hymnal To that old rugged cross I will ever be true, its shame and reproach gladly bear then hell call me someday to my home far away, where his glory forever Ill share.
