Nov 30, 2012 – Ojukwu’s Will Reveals Secret Daughter; Bianca Ojukwu To Lose Property If She Remarries
The will of the late Ikemba Nnewi, Chief Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, was on Friday presented to the family with his widow, Bianca, getting the lion’s share.
The presentation by the Chief Registrar of the Enugu High Court, Mr Dennis Ekoh, was witnessed by Bianca, Mr Val Nwosu, Ojukwu’s first cousin, and Mr Mike Ejemba.
Chief Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu: wills lion share to Bianca
In the will, the late Ojukwu identified one Tenny Haman as one of his children.
Ojukwu’s 8 Chidren Revealed
Ojukwu listed the children as;
- Tenny Haman
- Chukwuemeka Jnr
- Mmegha
- Okigbo
- Ebele
- Chineme
- Afam
- Nwachukwu
Bianca Ojukwu Gets Large Share Of Ojukwu’s Property
The Ikemba gave the Casabianca Lodge at 7 Forest Crescent, GRA, Enugu, two property at Jabi and Kuje in the FCT as well as all his money and personal effects to his widow.
He also said that Bianca should replace him as the trustee in the family company, Ojukwu Transport Ltd, while also giving her two plots of land in his village at Nnewi. He, however, added that if she re-married, the land should be taken away from her.
The first son, Emeka Jnr., got the family house at Nnewi, while the newly mentioned daughter, Tenny Haman, got the Jubilee Hotel located in Zaria, Kaduna State.
The Biafran warlord also shared other landed property in the village among all his children.
Ojukwu listed the trustees and executors of the will to include Bianca, Emeka Jnr and Mr James Chukwuneme.
Reacting to the will, Bianca, who is Nigeria’s Ambassador to Spain, expressed satisfaction with its contents.
“It was a fair will. This time round, he did not disappoint us,’’ she said.
The ambassador, however, expressed shock at the disclosure of a new daughter in the family, whom she said had never been mentioned by her husband.
None of Ojukwu’s children was present at the presentation of the will.
A man who claims to be Ojukwu’s first son has already filed a legal action in a Lagos court on the will.
Chief Debe Odumegwu Ojukwu who claimed to be the eldest child of the late Ojukwu had slammed a N100 million suit on his father’s widow, Bianca and six others, accusing them of preventing him from managing his estate.
In the suit filed before a Federal High court in Lagos, Chief Debe alleged that the defendants prevented him from performing the dust to dust rites during the burial of his father and also prevented him from managing his estate.
Also joined in the legal battle are Ojukwu Transport Limited, Professor Joseph O. Ojukwu, Engineer Emmanuel N. Ojukwu, Mr. Lotanna Ojukwu, Emeka Ojukwu, Mr. Patrick Ojukwu, Mrs. Margret Mogbo, Nee Ojukwu, the Inspector-General of Police and Mr. Ibrahim Mukhtar, former Commissioner of Police Anambra State, now an Assistant Inspector-General of Police.

when a great man dies even the fly claims to be his relatives. Very soon even the entire people of Nnewi we claims that he is their brothers. May your soul rest in peace.

Maybe the great man didnt want to make bianca sad – that is how we men are. it is good to acknolege the hausa duaghter. He only leave bianca her house and 2 lands in abuja. he was not rich so what money did he leave her and what personal effects because she cannot wear his clothes!
She shoudl forgive Ikemba and face her small children and give them good education. The senior ones must work for their living because if they go to court all their father had was just 2 land in abuja and land in nnewi.

So its true that Ikemba was not rich and was not lying because he have only land in the village, one house in enugu and 2 lands in abuja to call his own. I admire him even more. Imagine only one house in all of eastern nigeria for Ikemba and all this governors are claiming he is their father so what did they give him in his life? tufiakwa! Obi, Rochas, Orji, Chime and Elechi, oji Uzo kalu,etc shame on you. This man is our hero forever.

A man’s worth doesn’t consist in the abundance of his possessions. There are so many rich people who love to go simple. That he doesn’t have house in all d states of the federation doesn’t mean he’s poor, poverty is a state of mind.

For this man to actually not have much and refused to be bought over shows how principled he actually was. A selfless leader he was, really!
