Kemi Olunloyo, daughter of former Governor of Oyo State, Dr. Victor Olunloyo in a recent interview aired on a popular television programme, has confirmed claims by Femi Fani-Kayode that he actually had a romantic affairs with Bianca Ojukwu in time past.
Kemi said, Bianca Ojukwu and Femi Fani-Kayode were romantically involved years back and got engaged to marry, adding that Bianca got pregnant twice and aborted the pregnancy because she was no longer interested in the engagement.
Fani-Kayode spoke about the relationship in 2013 while trying to defend himself against allegations of tribalism. He said: “I was not a tribalist when I had a long-standing and intimate relationship with Bianca Onoh, an Igbo lady, who later married Colonel Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, the leader of Biafra and who is now our Ambassador in Spain,” Fani-Kayode said at the time.
Ms Olunloyo made this confirmation during her recent appearance on ‘Frankly Speaking’, a program on an entertaiment TV.
“Fani-Kayode was dating Bianca, Fani-Kayode was in Cambridge, I’ve seen Bianca in Fani-Kayode’s room many times, loved up and everything. They went out,” she said after explaining that she was in London at the same time as the two.
“So when this thing happened, Femi called me… Femi needed someone to defend him… Everybody didn’t want to get involved, but I stood up for Femi. It’s true, they went out, and she got pregnant twice…The first pregnancy was a miscarriage…they were supposed to get married, they were engaged already, but Bianca didn’t want to go out with Fani-Kayode anymore so she had an abortion…I’m saying it on camera now, she had an abortion,” she added.
However, Bianca Ojukwuin in a statement signed by her media liason officer, Uchendu Onuoha, did not address the issues contained in Kemi Olunloyo’s Tv interview neither did she denied the three of them ever been in England at the same time.
Rather she said, “It is obvious that Ms Olunloyo needs urgent psychiatric attention Her Excellency extends her sincere sympathies to Ms. Olunloyo’s family, and urges those who are able, to ensure that this mentally challenged individual receives the crucial psychiatric help she is so desperately in need of in order to contain her excesses.”
