Bianca Ojukwu has revealed the reason behind why she slapped Eberechukwu Obiano
Bianca Ojukwu has given motivations behind why she slapped Ebelechukwu, the spouse of previous Governor Willie Obiano at Thursday's introduction of Charles Soludo as the 6th chosen legislative head of Anambra State.
Bianca is the widow of the late Biafran pioneer, Odumegwu Ojukwu.
The fight between the two ladies drew the consideration of safety specialists and a few visitors who surged in to isolate them.
The episode briefly disturbed exercises at the function.
Mrs Ojukwu, in an explanation on Friday distributed by Arise News Television, said she slapped Mrs Obiano on the grounds that the previous first woman went after her and utilized "unprintable disgusting language" on her.
Mrs Ojukwu said she gave no consideration to the previous first woman's the point at which the last option showed up at the scene of the function.
"Shockingly, she then strolled towards me and I thought she was coming to welcome me. All things being equal, when she got to where I was situated, she obnoxiously went after me with her voice raised, provoking me and asking me what I could be done and utilizing unprintable abhorrent language," Mrs Ojukwu said, as indicated by Arise News.
Proceeding, she said: "Then, she kept forcefully putting her hands on my shoulders and yelling. While I disregarded her verbal attack, as prompted by those lounging around me, I mentioned double that she shun contacting me with her hands.
"She continued to do as such once more and went further to get at my head tie, which she endeavored fruitlessly to eliminate. As she made towards me, I then pulled away her hairpiece. She clutched her hairpiece with her two hands and attempted to remove the hairpiece from me.
"This very demonstration is viewed as a heresy to a named female authority, for example, myself in Igbo culture. It was now that I rose up to protect myself and gave her a messy slap to prevent her from going after me."
Mrs Ojukwu, who is a previous Nigerian representative to Spain, said it took the mediation of the previous public director of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Victor Umeh, for Mrs Obiano to get back to her seat.
Mrs Ojukwu said the previous lead representative, Mr Obiano "endured the whole episode totally confused".
She said the occurrence was "exceptionally humiliating" to Mr Obiano who left the setting very quickly, taking his better half alongside him.

Mrs Ojukwu is said to have been hateful of Governor Obiano's organization all through the eight-year-residency.
Hours before Mr Soludo's initiation, Mrs Ojukwu composed on her Facebook page, "It's freedom day, and today we sing the recovery melody," clearly jubilating that Mr Obiano's organization was reaching a conclusion.
"Anambra will be better," she added.
"This is the day the Lord has made… a day that reaffirms the age-long truth that nobody holds the stage for eternity. I thank the Almighty for keeping us generally alive to observe this day," she said in another Facebook post.
“Surprisingly, she then walked towards me and I thought she was coming to greet me. Instead, when she got to where I was seated, she verbally attacked me with her voice raised, taunting me and asking me what I was there to do and using unprintable vile language,” Mrs Ojukwu said, according to Arise News.
Continuing, she said: “Then, she kept aggressively putting her hands on my shoulders and shouting. While I ignored her verbal onslaught, as advised by those sitting around me, I requested twice that she refrain from touching me with her hand.
She proceeded to do so yet again and went further to grab at my head tie, which she attempted unsuccessfully to remove. As she made towards me, I then pulled away her wig. She held on to her wig with her two hands and tried to take the wig away from me.
“This very act is considered a sacrilege to a titled matriarch such as myself in Igbo culture. It was at this point that I stood up to defend myself and gave her a dirty slap to stop her from attacking me.”
AMrs Ojukwu, who is a former Nigerian ambassador to Spain, said it took the intervention of the former national chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Victor Umeh, for Mrs Obiano to return to her seat.
Mrs Ojukwu said the former governor, Mr Obiano “sat through the entire episode completely speechless”.
She said the incident was “highly embarrassing” to Mr Obiano who left the venue almost immediately, taking his wife along with him.

“Anambra will be better,” she added.
“This is the day the Lord has made…a day that reaffirms the age-long truth that no-one holds the stage forever. I thank the Almighty for keeping us all alive to witness this day,” she said in another Facebook post.
