Wife of the President, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, has said she is not ready to feed her husband, President Goodluck Jonathan, in prison.
The President’s wife spoke in Ado Ekiti, on Monday, during the rally of the women’s wing of the Peoples Democratic Party.
Making a reference to the All Progressives Congress, she asked, “What did they forget in Aso rock? If you vote PDP and Jonathan, it would be better for you. If you vote APC, you will go to prison. How can you jail somebody for 300 years? I’m not ready to carry food to my husband inside prison oh!”
She openly admitted that the Office of the First Lady, which she occupies, is illegal.
She, however, said there was nothing wrong in a woman supporting her husband in office.
She said, “They said there is no Office of the First Lady. Already, we know that there is no Office of the First Lady but there is wife of the President.
“As (the) wife of the President, if you are good, people will love you. You will have a Non-Governmental Organisation through which you will touch people’s lives. That is why I brought Women for Change Initiative.”
While she was talking, women – both old and young – fought to have their share of the leftover of rice distributed by Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, during the last Christmas festival, packaged in small bags.
The women were still struggling over the rice packaged in small bags when attention was diverted to another struggle for buckets presented by Senator Gbemi Saraki in commemoration of the October 16 inauguration of Fayose.
In the struggle, which almost resulted in a stampede, many of the women got injured.
Shoes, headgears, wigs and bags littered the floor while a woman was heard complaining to a friend that she lost her bangle.
Security men had a hectic time controlling the surging women who engaged in a brawl.
Mrs. Jonathan described APC as a poison, saying, “If you drink APC, you will die.”
Accusing the party of having to change name several times, she said, “Since my father was born, they have been around changing from one name to another. Very soon they would answer Ebola. The name can’t change you; it is only performance that can change you. If you like change it 100 times.
“Nigerian women shine your eyes, don’t go for analogue, go for digital. PDP is digital, APC is analogue.
Fayose at the event took a swipe at former President Olusegun Obasanjo, saying his tacit support for the APC presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhamadu Buhari (retd.), would get him nowhere.
“After Jonathan, the North can have their own eight years. Whether they like it or not, whether that our baba, you know him, whether he tore his card or not, whether he ate the card or not, Buhari is going nowhere,” he declared.
“Goodluck is our own. He is coming back. I am carrying the madate of a people who believe in me. If they do elections here 20 times, I will win,” he boasted.
Mrs. Jonathan said it was time for the women to pay back her husband for appointing several women into positions of authority.
“This is the time to say thank you so that he will do more. Those people when they were there, they said we didn’t have brains. Jonathan came and lifted us from where we were lying helplessly.”
She urged the women to collect their Permanent Voter Cards and vote massively for the president.
“PDP is not a party that tells lies. Whatever we promise to do, we do. We are not a propagandist party. Ekiti women, your mother is here and I will not tell you lies, but the truth.
“Nigerian women shine your eyes o! Vote with what you have seen, who you already know and who has performed. If anyone is telling you change, they are deceiving you.
“These were people that when they were there before Goodluck Jonathan, they did not count you women as anything. But today, PDP has wiped away our tears. Jonathan has wiped off our tears. He has fulfilled his promise of giving women 35 per cent participation. He gave 16 seats to women out of 42 slots in his cabinet. He is a performer.”
Earlier, over 100 wives of Ekiti monarchs welcomed the President’s wife to the palace of the Ewi of Ado Ekiti, where seven of them prayed for her while she knelt down in their midst.
Speaking through the wife of the Ewi, Mrs. Abosede Adejugbe, the wives of the monarchs appealed to the President’s wife to extend the Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme to Ekiti State fully.
She assured her of total support in the coming general election.
The wife of the Ewi also called on six other ‘oloris’ in addition to herself to pray for Mrs. Jonathan, describing seven as a powerful number. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Your husband will soon change his name from Ebele to Ebola before you know the meaning of CHANGE. Trust me. Foolish woman, no child o! idiot.
ReplyDeleteShe was 13 years when she was dis-virgin and got her womb spoiled due to frequent abortion.
She's on drug just like FFK and Fayose.
Why are you guys so uncouth! Can you read what you wrote! Why are you guys so bitter! Why do you have to believe every gibberish you read online especially gutter blog journalists like Nigerian Eye! If you dislike the woman pretty much, shut your ill mouth and take your card to the pooling unit and quit mocking a barren woman on social media! You don't know what's gonna happen to you or your children! People really need to be careful over the ills they say with there mouth. And for Blogs that are partisan and thus spew lies, the fun doesn't always last long..there is always a time for everything.
DeleteHaba easy na. I'm supporting apc but this one too much. We all know her level of understanding so just leave her alone.
DeleteStop this your style of electioneering. Nigerians have respect and decency.
DeleteYou speak well, no mind them, na illiteracy dey. Worry dat woman. Yeye
DeleteTrue talk my brother/sister, we in APC are more modest. We already know the crudeness in this woman so it pays to just ignore her, because nothing can change her. Even after her Calabar 'stone' them episode, she is still going around preaching hate.
DeleteDont insult the wife of the president like this have some decency and honour for our Nigerian women
ReplyDeleteDo you expect anything less from him, just like his party, APC, their stock in trade is to rain abuses on the presidency just because of power. They have all fail ed cos we Nigeria n's want the continuity we can see rather than change we don't know
DeleteAnnoy 7:22, ur words really baffles me. Does it means the presidents wife is untouchable? Is she God? You talked abt decency & honour, pls did ur first lady has any? Calling ur fellow human brain dead as if its not God that created him just bcos she wants to die on the throne. There is no 2way abt it jonathan will perish like the biblical pharaoh unless he change his ways & set the nation free frm corruption, insecurity, unemployment, poor health care, poor electricity etc. May the Almighty God heal our land & listen to our cries bcos of generations yet unborn.
DeleteSmh, see desperation. If ur husband performed people will naturally vote him back
ReplyDeleteAs they would do comes 28th March, 2015 while hater like you would like their wounds. I dey laugh you on!
DeleteYou are not even sounding convincingly with what you said that PDP will win, have listen to alots of all this PDP talk and yet to see any evidence to back their victory perhaps they thought that is endorsement that will do the magic honestly am not interested in who win but going what is going on around most expecially among the masses not the elite which most of them do not have PVC am not see PDP winning this election not at all. So, bro stop laughing and start crying if you really think you will win.
DeleteHow can she take food to him when she would be in jail. Joker. Madam hippo your time is up.
DeletePatience,
ReplyDeleteYour mouth has spoken it . You will feed surely feed him in Prison . The ICC will also come after you.

ReplyDeleteShut up idiot. We don't have a president. We have Jezebel and Ahab.
DeleteHmmmmmmmmm if taking food to prison is what you are afraid of, you better sit up because not only Ebele will go to prison but you yourself will also join him and your daughter will bring food for you and Ebele so dont worry Patient. The Lord is your muscle.
ReplyDeleteSpot on! LOL
DeleteOnly the court of law has the power to jail a jailable person. If your husband has to cause to be jailed, even world court cannot and APC as well cannot. But if found guilty of any criminal act and sentenced to jail, then so be it. How are you even sure that you will not be the one to be fed in jail? stop conceiving negative thought about our President o. There is power in the tongue. Whatever you fear unnecessarily is what comes to you.
ReplyDeletelol. she has already seen her husband's destination. change that u so much dread is coming to stay come March 28.
ReplyDeleteNigerians,No matter how bad they are ,we must repect our women please.women are mothers.I prefer APC but abusing women publicly like this is totally unacceptable please.
ReplyDeleteIs she a mother? Madam hippo is not a mother. She is a tout.
DeleteWomen are rushing for rice and buckets and some got injured while some lost their belongings and you say they should not vote for change?
ReplyDeleteBoko haram boys we have heared from your comment. Mark today date your Boko haram President from APC can never enter Aso Rock after election you people are going to commite sucide.
ReplyDeleteStop making fool of yourself, you have just one vote and that's if you even have PVC and you are ranting on who is who is not going to Aso rock.
DeletePlease don't insult the wife of our President
ReplyDeleteWill you get out of here. This violent empty headed hippopotamus.
DeleteShe will sadly not be able to feed her hubby in prison. U knw y? they r gonna be co-inmates. D dydtem will feed them along with other inmates.
ReplyDeleteBe warned
Delete"Vote APC and go to jail" Imagine her mentality, Nigeria's first lady indeed. The worst thing that happens is when you are "fucking up" and you think you are doing well. It gets "worster" when people around you don't tell you, you ain't doing well. That has been the case with this woman. She has been a disgrace to herself, womanhood, motherhood, her husband and Nigerians. " just can't imagine her there the next for years. Sai! Baba. O.J
ReplyDeleteAll heard and seen.
ReplyDelete1. Lets not insult her because we should be decent; atleast to prove pple like FFK and Fayose wrong.
2. Lets stop abusing ourselves because we all want the progress of Nigeria (APC or PDP).
3. Let show our resolve(s) via at the ballot.
As for me, my family and my numerous friends, we have decided vote for GMB
God bless you. I have resolved that me and my family our vote though is small but is for GMB
DeleteAnimalistic talk. First Nigeria Illiterate Fist lady. I wish this woman is educated she would had been more wiser than GEJ. GEj is a fool for ever, ogogor drunker continue and begin to remove your items from Aso Rock.
ReplyDeleteThere is absolutely no need to trade banter or engage her in verbal flatulence with Mrs Patience Jonathan the reason is like arguing with someone with midsummer madness or engaging in a mud brawl with a pig... A sane person be worse off in the end.
ReplyDeleteWe don't want you people and your so called change, all we want come March 28, 2015 is the PDP mandate therefore, you guys should get ready to weep like a baby
ReplyDeleteYour foolishness has no equal.
DeleteHmmn, I don't know why we are disturbing ourselves over this woman. Someone who keeps disgracing the office of the president. Imaging her saying " Ojukwu is dead but he left his manhood behind", I travelled abroad to go and rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteAbeg, there is notin like "woster". Nxt time use worst.
ReplyDeleteWill l call dis fear or wot, cos madam for u to say jona ll go to jail means he hasnt done wot we put him der to do. Secondly its a mess to see women fighting for meager things and u say u wont go to jail. Its unheard of in a gud economy to see women fighting for buckets and u think u ve done well. Fayose dnt boast cos ur end might be near
ReplyDeleteThe woman will always be in front page of news paper. Pls someone should talk to this woman naah she should stop disgracing herself n husband.
ReplyDeleteIgnore this post. IT IS COMPLETELY FALSE. Where is the video
ReplyDeleteMrs jonathan has a plan, she want to send her suppose husband to prison and inherit all what they have gathered through corruption, because she believe, she doesn't have anything to lose, after all she does not have a child for the poor man (Jonathan).
ReplyDeleteWHATEVER! YOU HAVE NO NEED OF FEEDING YOUR FELLOW PRISONER! CHANGE OR REMAIN IN CHAINS FOR LIFE! CHANGE IS THE ANSWER!
