Bianca Ojukwu Explains Why She Slapped Mrs. Obiano
Late Chukwuemeka Ojukwu’s wife, Bianca Ojukwu, has given detailed account on what transpired between her and the wife of the former governor of Anambra state, Ebelechukwu Obiano.
If you had no idea, a fight transpired between the two women at the inauguration of Prof. Chukwuma Soludo as the new governor of Anambra state on Thursday.
Issuing a statement on Friday, Bianca revealed Ebelechukwu was initially absent when the inauguration ceremony started but arrived an hour later.
Read Statement Below:
I did not pay any attention to her. But surprisingly, she walked towards me and I thought she was coming to greet me. Instead, she verbally attacked me with her voice raised, taunting me and asking me what I was there to do, using unprintable and vile languages.
She asked if I had come to celebrate their last day in office or laughed at them. But I ignored her completely. Then, she kept putting her hands on my shoulders and shouting aggressively.
While I ignored her verbal onslaught, as advised by those sitting around me, I requested twice that she refrained from touching me with her hands. She proceeded to do so yet again and went further to grab me at my headtie, which she attempted unsuccessfully to remove.
It was at this point that I stood up to defend myself and I gave her a (dirty) slap to stop her from attacking me. As she made towards me, I pulled away her wig. She held on to her wig with two hands and tried to take the wig away from me.
The former APGA chairman, Dr Victor Umeh, told her to leave me. Umeh asked other APGA members that had gathered at the spot to lead her away, which they did and they took her to the seat next to her husband, Willie Obiano, who sat through the entire episode completely speechless.
Obiano’s wife was drunk with whisky when she verbally attacked me. What struck me through the whole episode was the fact that she was clearly intoxicated. I was stunned by the stench of whisky in her breath at such an early hour of the day. How could a first lady be so drunk, and proceeded to turn up in that state at an inauguration ceremony that began at 9am?
This was highly embarrassing to her husband, who left the venue almost immediately, taking her along with him. Luckily, this did not disrupt the proceedings and I stayed back to witness the ceremony to the end, after which we were treated to a sumptuous reception at the Government House.
