Mrs Obiano had contested under the All Progressives Grand Congress (APGA) but had been floored by Labour Party’s Tony Nwoye. Bianca Ojukwu, who had once had a public altercation with the politician during the inauguration of Charles Soludo, took to her Facebook page to make a mockery of her defeat.
