Obiano’s Wife Apologizes To Soludo And Declares Senatorial Ambition

Mrs. Ebelechukwu Obiano, the immediate past First Lady of Anambra State, has tendered an unreserved apology to Governor Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra State over their public fight with Bianca.

 Mrs. Ebelechukwu Obiano has declared her intention to join the contest for the forthcoming Anambra North Senatorial District election.

In a statement released on Wednesday, March 30, Ebelechukwu apologized to Governor Charles Soludo, Ndigbo, and friends of Ndigbo over the incident between her and Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu in Awka at the inauguration ceremony of Soludo on March 17, 2022.

She added that she would serve to empower the poor and needy, especially women and children. The former First Lady also described herself as a “peaceful person” who has never been known for violence.

The statement read;

“My interest to join the senatorial race is in response to overwhelming pressure and calls from my people to represent them in the Senate at the National Assembly in Abuja. As has been attested to by the good people of Anambra State, service to people, humanity, sharing love, and putting smiles on sad faces are my priority in life, and I know that it is the will of God because the Bible says that God is love.

“Therefore, having witnessed and been positively touched by my ever-willing disposition to care for people, empower the poor and needy, especially women and children, particularly widows, orphans, and the destitute, my people decided that I should come and serve them better in a higher capacity.”

“As a peaceful person that I am well known for, violence has never been in my character and I am grateful to several elders, statesmen, friends, and associates of the Obianos, as well as a countless number of good people of Anambra State who called and expressed their concerns and offered wise counsels and words of comfort after the unfortunate drama.”

Obiano, in a letter, addressed to Soludo titled, ‘A public apology,’ Mrs. Obiano, had expressed her apology for the altercation between her and Ojukwu.

“Permit me to use this medium to humbly convey to you my sincere, heartfelt, and unreserved apology for the unfortunate incident between Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu and myself on Thursday, March 17, 2022, the day of your inauguration as the new Executive Governor of Anambra State in which you took over from my husband, His Excellency, Chief Willie Obiano.

“The incident, to say the least, was most unnecessary, unfortunate and I regret my action. It was an unintended action as violence is never in my character. Your Excellency, Sir, I hold your person, your ideals, the records of your great accomplishments in public service in Nigeria and beyond, as well as their concomitant colossal impacts on public policies in the highest esteem.

“All those who know me can testify that before and throughout my eight years as the First Lady of State, I pursued peace, promoted philanthropic gestures which empowered many of our less privileged people. No excuse can therefore be tenable as justification for such public embarrassment, no matter the height of provocation. Equally, I wish to extend the same apology to all the important dignitaries, the people of Anambra State, as well as the entire Ndigbo for that unintended embarrassment at the occasion.”
