Chief (Dr.) Sen. Edwin Kiagbodo Clark, otherwise known as Edwin Clark, a towering figure in Nigerian politics and an indefatigable advocate for the rights of the Niger Delta people, has passed away at the age of 97. The Clark-Fuludu Bekederemo family of Kiagbodo Town, Delta State, confirmed his demise in a statement issued on Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

The statement read: “The Clark-Fuludu Bekederemo family of Kiagbodo Town, Delta State, wishes to announce the passing of Chief (Dr.) Sen. Edwin Kiagbodo Clark OFR, CON on Monday, 17th February 2025. The family appreciates your prayers at this time. Other details will be announced later by the family.”

Edwin Clark’s death marks the loss of a seasoned statesman who played a critical role in shaping the political landscape of the South-South region of Nigeria. His passing comes on the heels of the recent demise of fellow elder statesman Ayo Adebanjo, leaving a significant void in the leadership of the region.

LATE EDWIN CLARK

Brief Biography

Born on May 25, 1927, in Kiagbodo, Delta State, Edwin Clark’s journey was one marked by service, resilience, and a commitment to justice. After attending primary and secondary schools in Effurun, Okrika, and Afugbene, he pursued his teacher training at the Government Teacher Training College in Abraka (now Delta State University, Abraka) before briefly working as a school teacher. Determined to broaden his horizons, he later traveled abroad to earn a law degree, returning to Nigeria as a qualified lawyer.

His career in public service was distinguished by key appointments during a transformative period in Nigeria’s history. He served under military governor Samuel Ogbemudia and head of state General Yakubu Gowon between 1966 and 1975, culminating in his appointment as Federal Commissioner for Information in 1975. Edwin Clark also briefly served as a Senator during the Second Republic and emerged as a stalwart leader of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), tirelessly championing fiscal federalism, resource control, and the rights of the Ijaw people.

Beyond politics, Clark was a noted philanthropist. He founded the Edwin Clark Foundation and established Edwin Clark University in his hometown, a testament to his commitment to educational development and empowerment in underprivileged areas. Colleagues, community leaders, and political figures have begun to pay tribute to Clark’s enduring legacy. His fearless advocacy, pragmatic leadership, and lifelong dedication to the unity and development of the Niger Delta have left an indelible mark on Nigerian public life. As the nation mourns his passing, many look to his storied career as an inspiration for future generations.

Further details on funeral arrangements and commemorative events will be announced by the family in due course.
