Charlton Doki died in a traffic accident on 14 - 12 2023

The US Ambassador to South Sudan has paid condolences to the family of the late journalist Charlton Doki.

This was yesterday during a funeral prayer for the deceased Voice of America South Sudan In Focus Coordinator and Editor.

Ambassador Michael J Adler described the late as someone who dedicated himself to the noble profession of journalism.

Adler said Doki knew untold stories and was committed to telling them.

Doki’s body will be flown to Uganda’s Kayung District where he will be laid to rest next to his late father Yoane Lonyong who hailed from Lirye Payam of Kajo-Kaji County in Central Equatoria State.

His father was a refugee in Uganda. Doki is survived by three daughters.

The US diplomate hopes that the children find comfort in their father’s noble name.
