Anambra State Governor, Chukwuma Soludo, has apologized on behalf of Bianca Ojukwu and Ebelechukwu Obiano to all Anambra people, friends, and guests who attended his inauguration for the momentary breach of protocol at the event.
Soludo in a statement on Thursday, through his Media Aide, Joe Anatune, said the breach was caused by improper communication which arose from a personal issue between the two parties involved.
He said the breach which disrupted proceedings at the event happened after the wife of the former governor, Ebelechukwu Obiano, approached Mrs Bianca Ojukwu and muttered some words that led to an outburst.
Soludo assured that steps were being taken to resolve the misunderstanding and restore the parties to their previous relationship.

“The breach was caused by improper communication which itself arose from a personal issue between the two parties involved in the breach.”
“Steps are being taken to resolve the misunderstanding and restore the parties to their previous relationship.
“Anambra State has over the years been known for a huge stock of social harmony, and the stock will increase substantially in the years ahead as part of the concerted effort to accelerate the state’s development. God bless Anambra State, the Light of the Nation.”
