APAMS@56: I’m Happy I Followed My Vision

Nigeria’s foremost funeral undertaker and Chief Executive Officer of APAMS Funeral Limited, Sir Dr. Kevin Chukwumobi, has expressed happiness and fulfilment over his decision to abandon his pharmaceutical and medical services business more than three decades ago to pursue his vision in funeral undertaking.

Chukwumobi stated this during his annual birthday interview with newsmen to mark his 56th birthday, as he reflected on his life, business journey, challenges, successes and the lessons he had learnt over the years, particularly regarding the decisions that changed the course of his career.

The Ukpor-born businessman said one of the decisions he remained most grateful for was the courage to leave a familiar business and pursue an idea many people around him initially considered strange.

He recalled that he was already operating Amuche Pharmacy and Medical Services before quitting it and venturing into funeral undertaking in 1992, adding that it was from the name of the former business that he coined the acronym “APAMS”, which has become the identity of his funeral undertaking company.

According to him, leaving his pharmaceutical business for funeral undertaking was not an easy decision, especially as the new venture did not immediately bring returns. He said some of his friends and other people around him mocked him for going into the business, but he remained convinced that he was following his vision and the right path.

Chukwumobi said it took more than 11 years before he started experiencing the breakthrough he had expected, noting that the long wait taught him some of the most important lessons about business and life. He consequently advised young people against expecting immediate success whenever they start something new, urging them to remain patient, hardworking, dedicated, innovative and focused on their vision.

He testified the business which started on a very small scale and even attracted ridicule has today grown into a multi-billion-naira enterprise, with branches and operations in different parts of the country. He described APAMS as the most recognised name in the funeral business, citing its growth in fleet, workforce, geographical coverage, innovation, service delivery and clientele.

According to him, the growth of APAMS had been driven by continuous innovation and efforts to improve the standard of funeral services, making the company known for a wide range of funeral-related services and a fleet of specialised vehicles.

The APAMS Boss, however, said the greatest measure of his success was not only the size or visibility of his company, but the number of lives that have been affected by the business. He said the company had created employment opportunities for many young people and provided a means of livelihood for numerous families who depend directly or indirectly on its operations.

He urged young entrepreneurs to remain committed to their dreams, saying that the early struggles he faced in APAMS did not prevent the business from eventually becoming a widely known brand in Nigeria and beyond

Reflecting on his 56 years, he expressed gratitude to God, his family, staff, clients and others who had supported him over the years, saying he was particularly grateful that the vision he chose to pursue had not only given him personal fulfilment but had also grown into a business through which other people could make a living.

Founder and Chairman, APAMS Funeral Limited, Dr. Kevin Chukwumobi, has unveiled the company’s new Port-Harcourt office in Rivers State, further expanding its operational presence in the South-South region of Nigeria.

The new facility, located in Port-Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, becomes the 19th branch office of the funeral company and was officially unveiled on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, in a ceremony that also coincided with Chukwumobi’s 56th birthday.

The opening adds Rivers State to APAMS’ clientele base and growing network of operational locations across the country, as the company continues to extend its funeral and related services closer to clients in different parts of Nigeria.

Beyond serving clients in Rivers State, the Port-Harcourt office has been designated as the South-South Regional Headquarters of APAMS, from where the company’s operations in other South-South states will be coordinated.

The regional structure is expected to cover APAMS’ operations and expansion in states including Edo, Delta and Bayelsa, among others, providing a central administrative and operational base for the company’s activities within the region.

The choice of Port-Harcourt also gives APAMS a strategic presence in one of the South-South region’s major commercial centres and provides a base from which the company can respond more efficiently to the needs of clients across the region.

Speaking on the development, Chukwumobi said the opening formed part of APAMS’ continued expansion and efforts to take its services to more locations, while strengthening its ability to serve clients across the country.

The unveiling also continued a tradition associated with the APAMS chief executive, who has often used his birthday as an occasion to commission or unveil new business projects and offices, turning the celebration into an opportunity to mark another milestone in the company’s growth.

For APAMS, the Port-Harcourt office represents not only another branch in its growing network but also an important regional base for consolidating its presence in the South-South and supporting the company’s wider expansion plans.

The Port-Harcourt Office is located at Km. 3 East/West Road near Nkpolu Bus Stop, beside Conoil Petrol Station,Rumuigbo, PortHarcourt, River State.
