Amaechi & His Wife Didn't Visit Me; So I Have To Ignore Them –– Patience Jonathan

Wednesday, August 21, 2013

First lady, Dame Patience Jonathan on Monday said that despite the legions of prominent Nigerians who have flocked the presidential villa in Abuja to pay her condolence visit over the death of her foster mother, Late Mama Sisi, the governor of her home state, Governor Rotimi Amaechi and his wife, the Rivers First Lady have blatantly refused to visit her.

Below is why Patience Jonathan is angry again:
"It is instructive to note that since the death of Mrs. Charity Oba, the mother of the First Lady, several groups and individuals from across the country have come to condole the First Family at the State House.

"They include state governors and their wives from all the political divides; Nigeria’s former presidents and heads of state and their wives, captains of industry, female ambassadors and high commissioners of Nigeria, other members of the diplomatic corps, royal fathers and traditional leaders - the list is endless.
However, the governor and the wife from the First Lady's state have not paid such a visit," said a statement by director of information in the office of the first lady, Mrs. Ayo Adesugba.

Mrs Jonathan also stated how the Rivers State first lady, Mrs. Amaechi refused to receive her at the airport.
She stated: "Customarily, the wife of the state governor receives the first lady whenever she visits any state. That is why the wife of Bayelsa State governor travelled from Yenagoa to receive the first lady. Ordinarily, one would have expected the same complement from the wife of the Rivers State governor."
