Clara Chime Sent Packing From Government House By 'Loving' Hubby? Ha!!!

The drama over the detention of Mrs. Clara Chime, wife of the Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime, entered another chapter Sunday when the governor, with the assistance of security operatives, sent her packing from the Enugu Government House.

Mrs. Chime’s personal effects were packed for her by the governor and his security detail, and she was forcibly taken out of the Government House to her mother’s residence at House 38, Coal City Estate, Enugu.

Mrs. Chime, who THISDAY gathered struggled to depart with her four-year-old son, was bundled into a convoy of six cars and taken to her mother’s home.

However, on getting there, the mother who had not been notified that her daughter was being brought home, was not at home which forced Mrs. Chime and the security operatives to sit in their cars waiting for her mother to return.

After waiting for close to two hours, the governor, who was obviously embarrassed that news of his wife’s eviction had leaked and was attracting journalists who rushed to the mother’s estate, ordered that Mrs. Chime be brought back to the Government House.

However, he still intends to evict his wife today and hand her over directly to her mother.

THISDAY learnt that the governor took the decision to drive away his wife because she had petitioned the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) over her confinement in the Government House against her wish.

Mrs. Chime, who had admitted suffering from a nervous breakdown over what she alleged was as a result of her husband’s maltreatment of her, was however projected by the governor last week as someone who is mentally unstable requiring the administration of drugs by a doctor she does not trust and her confinement in her bedroom.

Meanwhile, the NHRC yesterday said it had not conducted any medical investigation to determine the mental health of Mrs. Chime.

A statement by NHRC said the commission was yet to reach a determination on the petition received from the governor’s wife.

The commission said: “The complaint is currently being investigated and will be subjected to the commission’s Rules of Procedure. The commission is a credible national institution that will never be biased or compromised in case management or any matter before the commission.”...culled from thisday

*When will the governor stop all this drama and concentrate on state affairs?When things fall apart and the centre can no longer hold,dont try to patch it....take a long walk...thats my two cents.

The on going drama is a big embarrassment and i call on governor Sullivan Chime to put his house in order!
