Bianca, the ravishing beauty and widow of late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, has expectedly turned out to be the biggest beneficiary from the will of her late husband.
The will read this morning in an Enugu High Court to Ojukwu’s family members saw the one-time Head of State of the defunct Republic of Biafra willing his estate and finances to Bianca, who presently serves as Nigeria’s Ambassador to Spain.
News Express reports that Ojukwu, who died November 26, 2011, aged 78, was especially fond of Bianca to the extent that he named his mansion where the couple lived in Enugu, South-East Nigeria, Casabianca Lodge.
