The Anambra State Government, on Sunday, August 25, reacted to the fight and alleged “strangulation” that occured between the Permanent Secretary of the state Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Welfare, Mrs Chinwe Achugbu and one of the Heads of Department, simply identified as Mrs Nkem.

Achugbu is one of the new permanent secretaries appointed in March 2024 by the state governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo.

The fight between both women reportedly happened at work on Thursday, August 15, during an argument over a yet-to-be-disclosed matter.

During the fight, Mrs Achugbu is alleged to have strangled Mrs Nkem, thereby putting her in a coma.

According to reports, the fight, which took place at the state ministry located at Dora Akunyili Development Centre, required the intervention of the state commisoner of Women Affairs Mrs Ify Obinabo for temporal peace to be restored between the two senior staff.

However, the injury inflicted on the HOD was so severe that she had to be the rushed to the Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital (aka Amaku General Hospital) for emergency treatment to save her life.

Sources allege that physical assault among staff in the ministry has occured multiple times.

Meanwhile, the Head of Service, Theodora Igwegbe, told Punch that she was aware of a reported fight at the ministry through social media but had yet to officially be briefed on what happened.

Igwegbe vowed to take action after an investigation and findings had been concluded on the matter.

She said: "I saw the report on social media on Friday, August 23, 2024. I have not received a formal report against the Permanent Secretary in question as provided by Section 7, Chapter 10 of the Public Service Rules (2021).

“That notwithstanding, I have started asking questions to ascertain what happened while I await a formal report, which should be the beginning of a process.”

Lol.... Reason for fight is yet to be ascertained...

Trust me, if it's not money, then one of them is having an affair with the other's hubby... Anything aside from this, is just to cover up the real matter....

By the time you hear what somebody said
It's stretched out, they expanded and made it worse
Now you all stressed out
You wish you got it straightened out
But it's too far gone
From "Who Shot Ya?" to "Hit Em Up" to 2Pac's song



Nas... 'Beef'

For her to go into coma, she must have held her neck tight for nothing less than 4 minutes.

IT IS A BIG SHAME, WHEN TWO ADULTS HAVE TO FIGHT LIKE CHILDREN AT WORK.



IT SHOWS A LACK OF DISCIPLINE AT MANAGEMENT LEVEL.



THE WORK PLACE IS NOT A PLAY GROUND AND WE HAVE TO IMPROVE AND UPGRADE OUR WORK CULTURE TO REFLECT A DISCIPLINED AND ORDERLY ENVIRONMENT.

In the Rotten Apple take a bite taste the worm
Embrace the world of reality we're faced to learn
Coke connection drug bust graveyards where thugs rest
I keep my mug blessed the evil is illegal substance sold
Roll mob deep guns in the black Jeep
Mac 11's and legends cracks in the streets
Patroller gold money folder gun happy soldiers
Never sober takin' over my blood is colder
Niggaz respect violence so I become it
I'm from it, I even done it blunted so run it
Yeah son, you know what this is
Take it off [come on dunn, don't even come at me like that]
[dunn, come on dunn]
Imagine this, no guns no knife
It's a one on one so now we gots to fight, son
Imagine this, no gun no knife
It's a one on one now we got to fight, yeah
Imagine that, no gun no knife
It's a one on one now we got to fight, yeah
Imagine this, no gun no knife
It's a one on one, son
