Exactly four days after the widow of the late Biafran warlord, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu slapped the wife of the former governor of Anambra state, the latter has released a statement.

However, 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).
PM News reports that 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.
