A very sad report reaching Uptown Press this Sunday is the passing of Chief Obinna Atuonu, the organizing secretary of the Abia State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Atuonu passed away at the age of 65 while addressing parishioners during a church service in Aba, the commercial capital of the state. According to a family source, Atuonu’s only surviving brother, Dr. Chiedozie Atuonu, received a call to urgently rush to Aba from Umuahia.
Upon arrival, he was informed that his brother was critically ill and needed his presence. Sadly, Chief Atuonu passed away before he could be taken to the hospital.
His body has been deposited at the morgue. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
