Bianca Ojukwu, former Ambassador to Spain and widow of Biafra leader, Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, had engaged in a catfight at the swearing-in ceremony of the new governor of Anambra state, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo on Thursday.
In a statement sent to The PUNCH on Friday, the renowned lawyer called for the arrest of both women, arguing that the police would have immediately arrested the two of them if they were not dignitaries.
He added, “No doubt, Governor Soludo has apologised for the embarrassment to which the guests were subjected. But that is not the end of the case as the offence of affray was committed.

“The offence of affray occurs when two or more people engage in a fight in public. It is punishable under Section 83 of the Criminal Code.
“The fact that the two VIPs were not arrested has once again confirmed that Nigeria operates two sets of laws, one for the rich and one for the poor.

“If two workers had committed affray in that ceremony, they would have been arrested, detained, and charged for disrupting the new governor’s inauguration.”

However, Bianca Ojukwu, on Friday released a statement explaining that she had slapped Obiano’s wife, Ebelechukwu, because she attempted to remove her (Bianca’s) headtie, an act she considered “a sacrilege to a titled matriarch such as myself in Igbo culture”.
