Fani Kayode Retract Comment On 'Intimate Relationship' With Bianca Ojukwu

Following the 7 days ultimatum given to him to withdraw his claim about his purported intimate relationship with late Chief Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu's wife and Nigeria's Ambassador to Spain, Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu or face liitigation, Femi Fani Kayode has withdrawn his claim. A statement signed by his lawyer, Mr. Akinola Babatunde Rotimi reads…


Our client knew Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu in the early to mid-80's when he was a student at London University and Cambridge University respectively. They were good friends at the time and they had a few mutual friends who are still alive today.
  
The bizarre, absurd and inexplicable assertion that they were not friends and that Ambassador Ojukwu has never met our client is patently false.
"Though he has not seen her for over 25 years, he spoke to her on the phone when her husband passed on last year.  

As our client said earlier through his press secretary, some of the words he used to describe his friendship with her in his article titled: 'A Word For Those Who Call Me A Tribalist' were indiscreet. He hereby withdraws them."
