The All Progressives Congress (APC) has stated that it is shocked and deeply saddened by the death of a highly respected Party Chieftain, Dr. Chamberlain Dunkwu, at 54. This was contained in a statement signed by Felix Morka, CON, National Publicity Secretary, All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to the statement, the late Dr. Dunkwu was 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. Prior, he was a Special Adviser on Members’ Affairs to the Speaker of the 9th House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila.
A Knight of Saint Christopher (KSC) and President of the Nigerian Aquatics Federation (NAqF), Dr. Dunkwu 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.
Our Party prays God to grant his immediate family the fortitude to bear this huge loss. And may He comfort all members of the APC family in Ika Federal Constituency, Delta State, and around the country at this difficult time.
It also reads: “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 he’ll call me someday to my home far away, where his glory forever I’ll share.”
“Fare thee well, dear compatriot!”it also added.
