After much silence, Ebelechukwu Obiano, wife of the former governor of Anambra state has finally reacted to the fisticuffs between her and the widow of the late Biafran warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu.

Recall that several videos released online captured Ebelechukwu Obiano receiving a slap from Bianca Ojukwu during the inauguration ceremony of Chukwuma Soludo, the new governor of Anambra last Thursday, March 17.

In the video, Ebelechukwu was seen to have left her seat and walked up to Bianca who was seated about five meters away from her to engage in an altercation.

This action by Ebele led to her receiving a slap from Bianca and subsequently, the former governor’s wife rained vile words at Ojukwu’s video despite several attempts by many people to separate the ‘fight’.

Reacting to this in a statement released on Monday, March 21, Ebele said contrary to reports, she had left her seat to greet Bianca but ended up receiving a slap from her (Bianca).

The statement which was released by Chidiebele Obika, an aide to the former governor’s wife said, all she did was approach the former beauty queen for their usual friendly banters.

The statement added that Ebele was surprised at Bianca’s response to her greeting with a slap and a push.

Pondering on what could have brought about the much anger and vile from Bianca, Obika said it is unbelievable that a former diplomat was unable to “manage herself in public”. The statement added that Ebele did not bother returning the slap but rather she walked away in utter bewilderment.

But while reflecting on the circumstances that led to the brawl between her and Ebele Ebiano, wife of the ex-Anambra governor, the widow of the late Bianfran leader, Ojukwu had said the former First Lady of Anambra was drunk when she verbally attacked her at Soludo’s inauguration. Bianca added that Mrs Obiano also attempted to remove her head tie, which made her slap the former First Lady to defend herself.
