The Nigeria’s
Ambassador to Spain, Mrs Bianca Ojukwu has rejected Chief Femi Fani-Kayode’s
withdrawal of his comments made about her in the social media and a national
daily, saying that the former Aviation minister’s statement was
only a riposte.
Consequently, Mrs
Ojukwu, through her lawyers, Wall Street Attorneys, wrote to Fani-Kayode on
August 27, demanding that he retract his statements and offer an unreserved
apology to her in The Sun and Thisday newpapers, giving the former minister up
to September 6, to do so.
However,
Fani-Kayode on September 6 withdrew his comments in the two newspapers, but he insisted that he knew Mrs Bianca Ojukwu in
the 1980s and claimed that they have intimate relationship; he added that some of those who knew she was his girlfriend
are still living.
But the events of
things changed two days after the response of Femi Fani-Kayode , hence Mrs
Ojukwu has insisted that she did not know Chief Fani-Kayode as she had not met
him before and said the retraction made
by Chief Fani-Kayode last Friday was not sufficient and satisfactory. said
Mr.Issac Igboanu, Personal Assistant to Bianca.
Rejecting Chief
Fani-Kayode’s comments in the two newspapers, her personal assistant said:
“The attention of
Her Excellency, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu has been drawn to a statement
purportedly issued by Chief Femi Fani-Kayode through one Mr Akinola Babatunde
Rotimi and published in the Daily Sun and ThisDay Newspapers of September 6,
2013.
“The phantom claim
in the said statement that Chief Femi Fani-Kayode and Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu
were once good friends to the knowledge of mutual friends who are still alive
is not only false, baseless and typical, but a further attempt by Chief Femi
Fani-Kayode to create the impression of a connection between himself and
Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu.
“Whilst it is
important to reiterate that Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu has never met Chief Femi
Kayode and does not know him in person, it is pertinent to note that the
statement issued through Mr Akinola Babatunde Rotimi, falls far short of an
apology and retraction of Chief Femi Fani-Kayode’s false and libelous outbursts
and is merely a desperate attempt to lend credence to fabrications, which he
seeks to present as reality with intent to gloss over the very serious issues
arising from the reckless publication.
“In the
circumstances, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu is left with no option than to leave
the matter in the hands of her lawyers.”
Moreover, i will like Bianca Ojukwu to just let the matter
go away, because if she insisted to go ahead with this so called ‘scandal’’ ,
it may bring out some dirty issues.....and at the same time , i will love to
draw the attention of Bianca to CLIMAX magazine that broke the news in those
years back that she is then dating the war-lord Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu which she refused and even took the soft selling
magazine to court...but what happened later?.......She became the wife and bore
children for the same man she rejected then !!!
