Ebele Obiano drunk with Whiskey when she accosted me – Bianca

Bianca, widow of the late Biafra warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, says former Anambra State First Lady, Ebelechukwu Obiano, was visibly drunk when both of them clashed at the inauguration ceremony of Prof. Chukwuma Soludo as the state governor.

In an interview with Arise TV on Friday, Bianca said she was left with no other choice than to slap the former first lady after she (Ebelechukwu) verbally and physically assaulted her.

She said the former first lady tried removing her headtie after taunting her without any response.

“As the inaugural ceremony for Professor Charles Soludo and his deputy, began and all guests were sitted, the former first lady of Anambra State, Mrs Ebele Obiano was noticeably absent.

“She then arrived some one and a half hours later while the ceremony was on. I did not pay any particular attention to her arrival.

“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, vile language.

“She asked if I had come to celebrate their last day in office, but I ignored her completely, then she kept aggressively putting her hand on my shoulders and shouting.

“While I ignored her verbal onslaught as advised by people sitting around me, I requested twice that she refrain from touching me with her hands. She proceeded to do so yet again and tried to touch my head and remove my headtie.

“It was at that point I stood up to defend myself and gave her a dirty slap to stop her from attacking me. As she made it towards me, I pulled away her wig, she then held on to her wig with her two hands and tried to take the wig away from me.

“The former APGA chairman Umeh told her to leave me and told everyone to leave. I was stunned by the stench of whiskey in her breath at such an early hour of the day.

“How could the first lady be so drunk at that time? I stayed back to watch the ceremony till the end and left with my dignity intact,” she said.
