Remember we reported the news of how the Biafra warlord, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu shocked his son by practically giving everything to the former beauty queen, Bianca and another daughter.
Barely 48 hours after reading the long-awaited Will left by this late Igbo leader, Ojukwu, his disinherited first son, Sylvester, has said he is worth more than the assets mentioned in his father’s Will. But Sylvester, who said he is worth over N3 billion, doubted the authenticity of the Will, describing it as a concoction.
“Even if it is true, I am worth over N3 billion, which is more than the assets mentioned in my father’s Will,” he said. Speaking with journalists on phone, he expressed surprise over the content of the Will, saying he did not believe it was indeed drafted by his father. His words: “I am surprised, and I doubt that the Will was drafted by my father. It was a concoction.
The Will seemed to have been drafted in a hurry by people desperate to achieve an aim. “But, if it is the true Will of my father, I have no problem with that. After all, this is not the first time a first son is disinherited from his father’s Will.” He said being disinherited from one’s father’s Will does not stop one from being his child. “If it is truly that of my father, being disinherited from his Will does not stop me from being Ojukwu’s first son.”
The legal practitioner said that through a DNA test a person could lose his paternity if it is proved that he is not the rightful child of his father. It would be recalled that Sylvester had dragged the Ojukwu family to court for preventing him from performing ‘dust to dust’ rites at his father’s burial. In the controversial Will, the late Ikemba apportioned the lion’s share of his estate to his wife, Bianca, and appointed her, the late Igwe of Oraukwu, Emeka Ojukwu and James Chukwuneme as trustees and executors of the documents.
The Will stated that only eight listed people should be regarded as Ojukwu’s children. They include Teni Hamman, Emeka Ojukwu, Mmegha, Okigbo, Ebele, Chineme, Afam and Nwachukwu. However, none of Ojukwu’s children was present when the Will was read at the Enugu High Court on Friday. Family members were urged to apply for copies of the Will as well as the codicil, which was prepared by Barrister Emeka Onyemelukwe on December 16, 2009.
Going by this development, Sylvester, www.nigeriafilms.com source gathered that, will be contesting the authenticity of the will in the court of law.
