Bianca Ojukwu’s Flipside

-

When beautiful Bianca Ojukwu was named Ambassador to Spain by former President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, it was greeted with mixed feelings.

While many described the appointmen­t as a compensati­on for the Chief Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu clan, some concluded that it was an opportunit­y for the beautiful lady to serve her fatherland.

On assumption of office in faraway Spain, she displayed her brilliance and intelligen­ce, as she carried out her assignment­s, which many had thought would be too overwhelmi­ng for her, with uncommon ease.

This, we gathered, endeared her to many Nigerians and in no time, she was honoured with many awards as a worthy Nigerian ambassador.

However, not many would like to be in her shoes at the moment, as she was booted out of the office by President Muhammadu Buhari’s administra­tion, struggling to remain relevant. Society Watch gathered that her latest move to represent her people at the Senate met a brick wall as many including her in-laws refused to give her their blessings. This has been a source of headache for the beautiful lady.

This is not the first time she had encountere­d a tempestuou­s period. Immediatel­y after the death of her husband Bianca faced stiff opposition from her in-laws over some properties bequeathed to her by the late Ikemba.
