Sylvester Ojukwu
First son of late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Mr. Debe Sylvester Odumegwu-Ojukw has admitted that his late father told him that Teny Harmana was his biological daughter.
Debe, told journalists in Enugu that there was no reason to doubt the paternity of Herman, as he (Debe) was aware of everything.
He said, “That is his daughter, I knew about her. The old man told me that Teny Herman was his daughter. I am his biggest and closest confidant; so there were so many things he laid bare to me which he never told others.”
The disinherited son added that Teny Herman’s mother hailed from the North.
“Her mother is from the North – Kaduna State precisely but I am not so sure of her first name now,” he said.
He said, “My father loved Teny just the same way he loved the northerners. Infact, Teny’s conception and birth was a hidden agenda he executed to demonstrate his love for the Northerners.”
However, he disclosed that the “authentic Will” written by his father was yet to be read, saying, “the Will purportedly read last week Friday at the Enugu State High Court is a script prepared by some people to suit their selfish desire.”
Debe added, “That is not his Will, you can see it from the reactions that have trailed it since it was read, so I’m not bothered. When the time comes, my late father’s Will would be read.
“Whenever it is time to read my father’s Will, Nigerians would be duly informed and no one would be taken unawares as was the case in Enugu.”
