The Omu of Okpanam land, Her Royal Majesty, Obi Martha Dunkwu has joined her ancestors.
Okpanam is an Igbo town in Oshimili North LGA of Delta State. Omu, one of the very few female royalties in the present Igbo land, was regarded 8j high esteem, as she spent her lifetime promoting Igbo traditions, culture and heritage, especially with regards to Anioma land of Delta State.
Omu Martha Dunkwu stood as the final embodiment of her lineage, serving as a guardian of tradition, a guiding force in her community, and a passionate advocate. It’s disheartening to see her withdraw from this rugged marathon called life’s journey, but her impact during her time with us is indelible, and history will honor her legacy. 
With her passing, Delta State is witnessing the death of yes another monarch, after the passing of Asagba of Asaba, Chike Edozien, who passed on a fews weeks ago.
