Patience Jonathan Appointed Permanent Secretary in Bayelsa State

Nigeria's first lady made kind of history yesterday by becoming the first First Lady of Nigeria to be appointed Permanent Secretary in a State civil service. 

Mrs Jonathan and 17 others were appointed Perm Sec in the state civil service by the governor of Bayelsa State, Governor Seriake Dickson. The announcement was broadcast on the state radio station yesterday evening Wednesday July 11th.

Explaining their reason for the appointment, the senior special assistant to the governor on media affairs, Mr. Daniel Iworiso-Markson, said that the First Lady was a teacher in the state's civil service and has been on leave of absence since 1999 to join her  husband in his political service; first as a deputy governor, governor, vice president, then president. If not for the leave of absence, according to him, Mrs Jonathan would have risen to the status of a permanent secretary by now.

  2. This is a clear case of sycophancy and bootlicking by an elected governor or better put hand picked governor. Playing to the gallery. Shame on Seriake-Dickson for courting cheap favours from the Presidency. Unemployment abound in Bayelsa State yet you are employing and promoting someone who doesn't need it in the least.

    This shows there's not much work to do in Bayelsa state government house!
