Wife of Anambra State Deputy Gov. Denies Being Slapped by the Governor’s Wife!


The wife of Anambra State’s Deputy Governor, Mrs. Oby Okeke has come out to deny reports making rounds all over town that she was given a stinging slap by the governor’s wife, Chief Mrs Ebele Obiano at a function in Awka.

She debunked these rumours making it known that she and the governor’s wife are inseparable!In a statement entitled,
“setting the records straight”,
signed by Mrs.  Stella Igboka, Special Assistant to the Deputy Governor, Dr. Nkem Okeke said ‘Her Excellency, Mrs. Oby Okeke, had initially dismissed and ignored the purported allegation as a mere figment of imagination of rumour mongers, but having been pestered with calls and enquiries from friends and well-meaning Anambra people, It became necessary to set the record straight. Part of the statement reads;“There is no iota of truth in the said story , the publication is malicious and whoever concocted that do not mean well for Anambra state and should not be taken seriously. Those peddling propaganda are nothing but idle minds that only want to create unnecessary friction where none exists between the wives of the Governor and his deputy who are enjoying a cordial relationship and working harmoniously in supporting their husbands in their statutory obligations of moving the state to an enviable height.”“While assuring the citizens of Her Excellency’s Mrs Oby Okeke’s unflinching loyalty and support to the wife of the State Governor, Chief Mrs Ebelechukwu Obiano (Osodieme) there is need to state equivocally that no level of smear campaign or calumny would distract the amiable wives of  the Governor and his deputy from working as a formidable team in support of their husbands for peace and progress of Anambra State.”
