15 Igbo billionaires to fund Bianca Ojukwu's election- Ohakim, but she will still not get to Senate

www.odogwublog.com reports that a former governor of Imo State, Chief Ikedi Ohakim who locked out Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, Igbo leader and Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu's late husband out from using Concord Hotels in Imo state in 2010 September 2th, under his watch as Governor has said 15 Igbo billionaires had been mobilized to sponsor the senatorial race of the Widow of his widow. That alone means Bianca would fail to get to senate. What is Ohakim preaching to Ndianambra?

He said the Igbo would not watch the wife of their former leader  intimidated by anybody in any circumstance.

Ohakim who described the late Ojukwu as the most selfless Igbo leader dead or alive, spoke at Ekwulobia in Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State during the formal declaration of Bianca's senatorial ambition.

He enjoined those aspiring to contest the position with Bianca to have a rethink, stressing that it would  be a set back to the Igbo and a disservice to Ojukwu for anybody to work against the interest of his widow and and  in fact any member of his family in general.

He said "Those who are contesting the poll with the wife of our leader may have the money and wherewithal to muzzle down Bianca but the don't have the same integrity.

" Bianca Ojukwu is not an ordinary human being, she is a spirit. She has double-barrel identity and double-barrel legacy.

"We have mobilized 15 Igbo billionaires to sponsor her ambition and over 25,000 youths to work for her.

He enjoined the people of Anambra State not to disappoint the Igbo race in the Bianca project.

He added," The people of Imo, Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu, have asked me to beg you(Anambra) to accomplish this mission and project in memory of our great leader, Dim Chkwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu.

"Ojukwu sacrificed his Oxford education, his personal comfort, his father's wealth to save the Igbo race at the most auspicious time".

Speaking, Bianca said she was going to the senate to accomplish the dream of her late husband of giving the Igbo a voice in national polity.

She  said what the Igbo need to canvass everywhere now, especially at the National Assembly was restructuring of the country.

She added, "APGA and Igbo interests run in my veins and blood; and I have a kindred obligation to defend it and that's why I'm going to the senate. The Ojukwu dream must not die. We can't abandon Ojukwu.

Bianca, a former Ambassador of Nigeria to Spain would contest the  Anambra South Senatorial poll on the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance.

Her late husband led APGA for over a decade during his lifetime, and was at several times the presidential candidate of the party

Ojukwu's widow is expected to fight it out with oil magnate, Ifeanyi Uba and business mogul Nicholas Ukachukwu in APGA primary to be held any moment soon.

Investigations show that the APGA hierarchy was amenable to her ambition as a pay backtime to Ojukwu who mentored the party.

Senator Andy Uba of the All Progressives Congress is presently representing the senatorial district.
