The daughter of late NAFDAC boss, Dora Akunyili, Chidiogo Akunyili-Parr is expecting her first child with husband, Andrew Parr.

Chidiogo posted a nude picture of her silhouette in the middle of the ocean which showed off her obvious bump and revealed she will be birthing both her first child and a book on her late mother’s story in August.
“In the coming week(s), in the month of August, motherhood takes on a powerful meaning for me as I’ll be birthing in more ways than one. For one, there is the birth of a child, for another, there is the birth of my mother’s story. Each has been incubated inside of me, held in love and deep trust.
“Both have been a most divine journey of listening, of introspection, of showing up through fear, through tears, through the ebbs and flows, saying yes to it all. Next week, I get to share at least one of the births with you — that of the book — a four-year journey of listening to and penning Dora’s Story in a book titled – ‘I Am Because We Are: An African Mother’s Fight for the Soul of a Nation’. I cannot wait to share in and with you all that is to come,” she wrote.
Chidiogo Akunyili and Andrew Parr got married in 2019 in Agulu, Anambra State and at the scenic Bark Lake Leadership Centre in Canada.
