Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo has apologised for the reported fight between the wife of the immediate past governor, Mrs Ebelechukwu Obiano, and the wife of the late Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, Bianca Ojukwu.
The two women had fought at the inauguration ceremony of the new Governor at the government house.
Soludo, in a press release by his media aide, Mr Joe Anatune, said the fight was caused by a breach of protocol.
Soludo said: “Prof. Soludo hereby apologizes to all Anambra people, friends and guests who attended his inauguration this morning as the Anambra State governor for the breach of protocol.
“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.”
