History repeats itself: Ojukwu slapped Umaru Dikko in 1995 [9News Nigeria file]

Many people have forgotten that the warlord himself, Chief Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, did what his wife did in 1995.

He was speaking during a plenary session of the Abacha Constitutional Conference, when Umaru Dikko publicly made some disparaging remarks about him.

Ikemba held his peace, and waited until Dikko got up.

Dim trailed Dikko to the toilet and slapped him!
The matter was reported to General Sani Abacha, who refused to intervene.
Who remembers this?

From that day one, Umaru Dikko was sober and respectful at the Constitutional Conference.

Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu did not make history on Thursday 17th March 2023 with the farewell slap giving to Ebelechukwu Obiano, as the media are reporting. She only repeated the history made by her very illustrious and distinguished husband Chief Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu
