Ojukwu and Bianca: The secret not shared

Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, the former Biafran leader who died early this year, showed great love to his wife, Bianca, now an ambassador of Nigeria to Spain.

Though he willed almost everything he had to her, according to the will read in Enugu High Court today, but there was a well guarded secret he never revealed to Bianca until he died 26 November 2011 after a protracted illness: his love child, a girl.

Her name is Tenny Haman, a name that sounds Ghanaian. Do you know her?

Ojukwu gave her Jubilee Hotel in Zaria and a share of his landed property in Nnewi. Could the location of the hotel be an indication that the girl was born by a woman from Northern Nigeria and probably resides up-North?

And fittingly, Ojukwu, a man of drama, kept the secret until his last testament was unveiled posthumously.

Even Bianca was surprised that he kept this close to his chest as she reportedly expressed utter shock. Would you blame Ojukwu for not sharing his secret love child with Bianca?

Tell us what you feel.

Emeka Ojukwu’s Will is Fake!!!

The first son of late Biafran leader Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, has alleged that the will presented by Barrister Onyekwelu on Friday is fraudulent, saying the lawyer is a private counsel to Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu and not that of his late father.

According to the report, Ojukwu’s first son, also called Emeka, like his father, claimed he  has a copy of the original will written by his father and not what he called the “fraud” presented to them as Ojukwu’s will. Speaking at his country home in Nnewi, Anambra State, the late Igbo leader’s son maintained that his late father’s will was altered in favour of his step mother.
