[b]Lol...


Relax my Darling.. Even a Mad Man on the streets gets his own Otimkpu's once in a while..


Let us go and start from Dame Jonathans very own Village and find out what she has done for Okrika in the past 7 years she has been at the top?! When Gov. Amaechi tried to bulldoze some ramshackle illegal structures to build a nice School for the Children of Okrika, she spearheaded the opposition to the move.

Okrika Grammar school of old was a thing of pride to Rivers State. Many of our finest Men and Women in society today passed through that school including my Grandfather.. Go and see what Okrika Grammar school looks like today. Even if you used it for Poultry, it would still not be nice enough for the fowls.

Let talk about Rivers State which is where she is from. ALL the problems in Rivers State today (with regards to the polity) was and is still being caused and financed by Dame Jonathan, A Rivers Woman. She is conniving with Charlatans (the likes of Evans Bipi who just like her cant string a single correct sentence in English together) to distabilize the polity. She is even supporting Wike, an Ikwerre Man who was a gross under-achiever as Obio Akpor LG Chairman to succeed Amaechi who has recorded Landmark successes as Governor even ahead of her fellow Riverine politicians.

Goodwill wey dem dey talk na to dey give out contract to her loyalists o!! If you go and kneel and kiss that her fat hand, you immediately become a stooge and start chopping money wey no get future cashflow.

Speaking of Pet Projects: When I say Betterlife for Rural Women, you are not going to have to think far to know what I am talking about. Even though its been over 15 years since it was active, the residual effect is still there for many to see. If I say family Support Programme, you wouldnt have to think too hard to remember how effective that was.. Please what has Dames pet project achieved?

Abegi...


She may be the President's wife, but she is a gross embarassment to the Nation and worse off a let down to her own people.[/b]




NOTE: The hypocrites saying its okay for our Multiple Higher Degree holding First Lady to be English Language deficient are the same people who called for teh Head of the Edo State teacher who couldnt read her own sworn affidevit.

Tell me what greater hypocrisy there is than this..

Its not 'Biography'.. Biogragphy is for somebody who is dead..

Its Auto Biography.

I think biography is not necessarily for a dead person(though it can be for d dead).
Autobiography is either written by d person him/her-self or by taking permission/concern from d person

slimmy05:
Not jealousy. You can't beat the profile. She is indeed a wife and a mother.

Sorry but the last time I checked, degrees are now buyable. Besides how can you be so certain that she's a good mother? Have you ever been under her care?

slimmy05:
What's bad about that? She has enough project she must have started which needs a lasting funds to fully reach its goal. Why do you view any act of advancement as greed?

I guess you must be a lawyer for making your point straight and clear.

There is nothing like THE OFFICE OF THE FIRST LADY in Nigerian constitution and all over the world to start with.. The duties of the first lady is to support her husband in addition to having NGO's and PET projects..People should be enlightened.

Dame Patience, our president’s
darling wife
The Guardian Thursday, 27th Aug
2010
Opinion – By Reuben Abati
DEMOCRACY is readily associated
with freedom: the freedom to be free in
many respects and increasingly in
Nigeria, many of our compatriots,
particularly persons in positions of
privilege and authority confuse this
with the right to be disagreeable. The
sober truth is that democracy is about
rights and responsibilities, a
democratic dispensation therefore
cannot be a licence for disagreeable
conduct as a norm; just as the
possession of power in any form does
not guarantee the right to be reckless
or to ignore the etiquette required of
office holders. Anyone in the corridors
of power, either by chance or right, or
appointment, is expected to behave
decorously.
Dame Patience Jonathan, as she is
now referred to, our President’s wife,
failed the test this week in Okrika,
Rivers State. It is trite knowledge that
there is a critical difference between
Yenagoa and Abuja, and a world of
difference between being the wife of a
Deputy Governor/Governor/Vice
president and being the wife of
Nigeria’s No 1 citizen. When people
suddenly find themselves in such
latter position, prepared or
unprepared, anywhere in the world,
they are taken through a crash
programme in finishing and poise and
made to realize that being the wife of
an important man comes with serious
responsibilities lest they sabotage the
same person that they should be
supporting.
If Dame Patience went through such
re-orientation, the course was
incomplete. This week, we got a
feedback drawn from her visit to
Rivers state to launch her NGO – the
Women for Change Initiative, when
she ended up in Okrika, her home
town. This homecoming became an
egoistic show-off as she openly
contradicted the state Governor,
offering him unsolicited lessons on
how to develop the Okrika water front
and school system, in addition to
pointed comments on the use of the
English language. The Governor had
reportedly insisted that his
administration must demolish some
houses which adjoin the schools in
Okrika in order to create a proper
learning environment. Dame Patience
disagreed.
She then gave an unsolicited lecture
on the land tenure system telling the
Governor: “I want you to get me clear.
I am from here. I know the problems
of my people so I know what I am
talking…” The Governor tried to explain
his administration’s policy and the
larger public interest. The Dame
reportedly cut him short: “But what I
am telling you is that you always say
you must demolish; that word must
you use is not good. It is by pleading.
You appeal to the owners of the
compound because they will not go
into exile. Land is a serious issue.”
Wao! “that word must..is not good.”
We must all commit that to memory
as we re-learn Practical English
according to Patience Jonathan!
If it is in the place of the President’s
wife to teach a state Governor how to
run his state, it is definitely not in her
place to veto a state policy (the reason
the governor used the word “must”),
not even her husband has such
powers. It seemed as if Dame
Patience Jonathan was determined to
impress her kith and kin. She told
them she had directed the governor
not to demolish their houses. Then,
she left straight for the airport
obviously having overstayed her
welcome and having behaved like a
bad guest. She was scheduled to visit
the prisons to grant amnesty to some
inmates (is that really her duty or
something that should be in her
itinerary? ); she was also meant to
commission some projects. The face-
off between her and the governor put
paid to all that.
On the eve of her arrival, a group
which calls itself “the Okrika Political
Stakeholders Forum” and “the people
of Kirikese” had actually placed an
advert in the papers welcoming “our
amiable daughter and sister…to Rivers
state and your home town Okrika.”
They also brought up the issue of “the
land reclamation and shore protection
project at Oba Ama, Okrika being
undertaken by the Rivers state
government.” (Daily Sun, August 23,
2010, p. 2). Either on the strength of
this advertorial or private
consultations, Dame Patience must
have felt compelled to be a partisan
stakeholder and intercessor. She
needed to put Rotimi Amaechi, the
state Governor in his place and that
was what did. She recommended
“pleading,” – that advice is actually
meant for her. A state Governor is a
duly elected official; and in a Federal
system, he is not answerable to the
President, and nowhere is the
president granted the powers of a
Headmaster over state governors. In
Okrika, Dame Patience behaved so
impatiently and spoke to Governor
Amaechi as if he is on the staff of the
Presidency. It may not be her fault
though. Amaechi caused it all by
bringing himself to such level by
undertaking to debrief Dame Patience
about his administration’s
programmes and activities in the
misguided hope of getting cheap
political endorsement. He should have
asked his wife to attend to her. On the
issue of land, Dame Patience should
be reminded that the Land Use Act,
Section 1 thereof, says the state
Governor holds the land in trust for the
people. Land matters in the state are
beyond the ken of the wife of the
President!
The wife of the President of Nigeria, or
a state Governor, or a local council
chairman, is not a state official. The
same applies to husbands if the
gender is reversed. He or she is
unknown to the constitution or the
governance structure. Recent history
has however made it a convention to
have the spouses of persons in such
positions under the guise of providing
support, play some ceremonial roles.
This has been routinely abused. Under
the Jonathan presidency, Dame
Patience Jonathan even got a special
allocation in the original budget for the
2010 Golden jubilee anniversary
whereas she has no official, financial
reporting responsibilities! The
international standard is that spouses
in these circumstances must not only
appear but be seen to be above board
like Caesar’s wife. They must not
misbehave like Marie Antoinette.
When Cherie Blair, wife of former
British PM, Tony Blair started buying
up houses, apartments and antique
furniture, the public raised questions.
It didn’t matter that she was a
professional in her own right, a
Queen’s Counsel with a traceable
source of income. There were also
questions about the scope of Hillary
Clinton’s influence during her
husband’s Presidency: Americans
wanted to be sure that it was the man
they elected that was in charge, not
his wife. A couple of weeks ago, the
American public was up in arms
against Michelle Obama and her poll
rating dropped drastically after a visit
to Spain where she and her daughter
reportedly stayed in a $7, 000 a night
hotel.
Much earlier, Nancy Reagan was also
the butt of public criticism, with people
asking: who is she? And this is not a
female thing. In Britain, Prince Phillip,
the Queen’s husband, is constantly
criticized for putting his foot in his
mouth. He once said for example that
“British women can’t cook.” He told a
visiting Nigerian President, all dressed
up in babariga (name withheld): “you
look like you’re ready for bed.” During
a state visit to China, he told British
students: “if you stay much longer,
you’all be slitty-eyed.” Prince Phillip’s
supporters insist that he is honest, but
the majority ask: how is the Queen
coping with such a man who is
perpetually saying something
offensive? There may be persons who
defend Dame Patience’s aggressive
style, but some of us ask: how is the
President coping?
Since Dr Jonathan assumed office, he
and his wife have been practically on
the road. The Dame has travelled from
one state to the other, under the
auspices of the Women for Change
Initiative. In every state she tells the
women to vote and “make sure your
vote counts if you like my husband.”
Is she now a partisan politician? The
Jonathans must be told that Nigeria
does not have a co-Presidency. We
have only one president and his name
is Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. And by
the way, what does Dame Patience
Jonathan do for a living? She
obviously does not have to deal with
the challenges of rotation and zoning
in her home, unlike the three wives of
the Adamawa Governor, Murtala
Nyako for whom zoning and rotation
have become topical subjects or the
wives of South African President
Jacob Zuma – that is why she can
afford to be so meddlesome!
When she misbehaves as she did in
Okrika, she creates the impression
that her husband is not in control of
his own home. First ladies are
prominent figures but their conduct is
an eternal subject of public interest. In
Nigeria, there was Victoria Gowon,
there was also Ajoke Muhammed:
dignified and restrained. There was
Maryam Babangida – she was
influential but no one could accuse
her of verbal recklessness; Mrs
Abdusalami Abubakar was a court
judge, totally self-effacing, No major
social party was complete without Mrs
Stella Obasanjo, yet she controlled her
tongue. Mrs Turai Yar’Adua was
described as the power behind the
throne and she proved that during the
period of her husband’s illness but
she was carefully reticent. At the state
level, there was Remi Tinubu in Lagos
state and Onari Duke in Cross River
state who have both conducted
themselves responsibly in and out of
office. The new First Lady likes to
travel, party, and talk outside the
script. People are beginning to learn to
read her lips in order to understand
her husband. Dame Patience must
not push her Goodluck.

slimmy05:
The hidden story about Dame Fakabelema Patience Goodluck:

Born 25th, October 1957 in Port Harcourt. She is a Mathematician, Psychologist, Biologist, Teacher, former Banker and a philantropist.

She obtained the National Certificate of Education (NCE) in Mathematics and Biology from the Rivers State College of Arts and Science, Port Harcourt. She then proceeded to the University of Port Harcourt and studied for a B.Ed in Biology and Psychology.
She also holds Honorary doctorate degree in Social Welfare Administration, Hansei University, South Korea

Mrs. Jonathan started her career as a teacher at the Stella Maris College, Port Harcourt and Sports Institute Isake. She then moved to the banking sector in 1997, where she established the first community bank in Port Harcourt called the Akpo Community Bank. She served as Marketing Manager of Imiete Community Bank. She returned to the classroom briefly again as a teacher. Eventually she was transferred to the Bayelsa State Ministry of Education, where she served until 29 May 1999 when her husband became the Deputy Governor of the state. On 12 July 2012, she was appointed as permanent secretary in Bayelsa state by a Governor, Henry Seriake Dickson.

Mrs Jonathan has been recognized locally, nationally and internationally for her philanthropic work and political pragmatism. She received the “Beyond The Tears” International Humanitarian Award New York, USA, in 2008, for her role in the global fight against HIV/AIDS; the African Goodwill Ambassador Award (Los Angeles, USA, 2008) and the recipient of the "Wind of Change" Award from the South/South Women’s Organization.

When Goodluck Jonathan served as Governor between 2005 and 2007, Patience Jonathan served the state in the capacity of the first Lady of Bayelsa State. During this period, she founded many philanthropic and women empowerment programs, among them are the A-Aruere Reachout Foundation (AARF), which she set up to improve the status and earning capacity of Nigerian women and youths. The foundation already has its focus on supporting and assisting children with heart-related problems.

Beautiful, bold, devoted Christian and a compassionate mother.

Yes, she still cooks for her husband despite her busy schedules. In recent times she has been spotted at Utako Market in Abuja buying groceries.

PLS IS THIS THE FIRST LADY WE KNOW?

AND THAT PIX YEN!!!! LOOKS LYK HER RESEMBLANCE LOL

kenex4ever:
I will die first b4 I fok my neighbour's wife, u too have a great weekend. Badoo like u

soo wat shud i do

chucs:
There is nothing like THE OFFICE OF THE FIRST LADY in Nigerian constitution and all over the world to start with.. The duties of the first lady is to support her husband in addition to having NGO's and PET projects..People should be enlightened.

enlightened one, u should also know dat the first lady is funded by nigeria and has staff, it's d fund they r referring to here nt d office

The last time I checked, you don't need to campaign or contest to become the first lady. Why the lip service poster... You written down all her merits. what of the former? Since you forgot to put her flaws on nairaland and make her look like a perfectionist, I will help you do that to ring into ur jughead "Nobody is Perfect regardless of status"
1. Grammatical blunder in abudance: she has a lot of weapons when it comes to english, Fg should let her face #BH. Smh shekau run for ur life.
2. Meddling into the affairs of the government: trying to force a candidate on the people of river state.
*causing serious fracas in rivers house of assembly because rotimi amaechi refuse to endorse that ugly "wiki" sowi imeant wike as governor for rivers.
3. You claim she is educated in every aspect then why is she still speaking poisonous english.
4. Upon all the title wey u waste ur data put for here, wetin end am? No be nah only u waka come.
5. Being an embarrasment to the Pdp, her husband and nigeria @ large. A highly respected PDP chieftain said President Jonathan risked protest votes from the PDP members to save the country from further embarrassment by the First Lady due to the fact that she wants to impose her own candidates in all south south zone. Don't believe then use this link: http://www.google.com/url?q=http://abusidiqu.com/2015-first-ladys-plot-to-install-6-governors-threatens-jonathans-chances/&sa=U&ei=cMxlVKCZD8vraOfVgIgH&ved=0CBUQFjAA&usg=AFQjCNHiOByiukaClyKQr0GKzzX1EzJZDQ.
If I want to continue I can cus the list is endless. Some of us have been blinded by #PDP's conspiracy theory involving #Gej and #pej. Look for change in nigeria not bullshit. http://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nairaland.com/1967193/2015-pdp-govs-confront-jonathan/2&sa=U&ei=cMxlVKCZD8vraOfVgIgH&ved=0CBkQFjAC&usg=AFQjCNFcCvH_sNIfehuXXO4SGr-m2OD-uQ [color=#000099][/color]

Ooh! no wonder she speaks English as if she's related to the Queen of England.

Wow! I love her profile. She's a true "African Quiz"

level, there was Remi Tinubu in Lagos
state and Onari Duke in Cross River
state who have both conducted
themselves responsibly in and out of
office. The new First Lady likes to
travel, party, and talk outside the
script. People are beginning to learn to
read her lips in order to understand
her husband. Dame Patience must
not push her Goodluck.

reuben abati wroted this when he was hungry,now he is bellefool

Hmmm, I never knew she had all of these...never judge a fig tree by its leaves.

shomutuski:
The last time I checked, you don't need to campaign or contest to become the first lady. Why the lip service poster... You written down all her merits. what of the former? Since you forgot to put her flaws on nairaland and make her look like a perfectionist, I will help you do that to ring into ur jughead "Nobody is Perfect regardless of status"
1. Grammatical blunder in abudance: she has a lot of weapons when it comes to english, Fg should let her face #BH. Smh shekau run for ur life.
2. Meddling into the affairs of the government: trying to force a candidate on the people of river state.
*causing serious fracas in rivers house of assembly because rotimi amaechi refuse to endorse that ugly "wiki" sowi imeant wike as governor for rivers.
3. You claim she is educated in every aspect then why is she still speaking poisonous english.
4. Upon all the title wey u waste ur data put for here, wetin end am? No be nah only u waka come.
5. Being an embarrasment to the Pdp, her husband and nigeria @ large. A highly respected PDP chieftain said President Jonathan risked protest votes from the PDP members to save the country from further embarrassment by the First Lady due to the fact that she wants to impose her own candidates in all south south zone.

If I want to continue I can cus the list is endless. Some of us have been blinded by #PDP's conspiracy theory involving #Gej and #pej. Look for change in nigeria not bullshit. http://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.nairaland.com/1967193/2015-pdp-govs-confront-jonathan/2&sa=U&ei=cMxlVKCZD8vraOfVgIgH&ved=0CBkQFjAC&usg=AFQjCNFcCvH_sNIfehuXXO4SGr-m2OD-uQ [color=#000099][/color]
