Nigeria's Richest First Lady Ever. What A Woman! (Note the bolded) ($31.4 = 11.2 billion naira) The admission by Patience Jonathan that she owns the whopping $31.4 million recently discovered in four bank accounts that were frozen by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has placed her as the richest First Lady that Nigeria ever had, investigation by Daily Trust on Sunday has shown. ----- You have read of countless, jaw- dropping plunders in the order of billions of naira, of loot packed in septic tanks, and of some salted away in offshore tax havens. But you are shocked by this umpteenth scandal, notheless. You are appalled – in spite of yourself – by reports that former first lady, Patience Jonathan, has gone to court to lay claim to ownership of $15 million deposit in four bank accounts frozen by the EFCC. She is standing on the premise of her constitutional right to “own property” to assert that the curious accounts opened and maintained in the name of the houseboys of her former domestic aide were hers, in actual sense. And, while you are trying your level best to process this obscenity without compromising your sanity, a corrective arrives to complicate matters: The EFCC has found a fresh $5 million in another Patience bank account. Which means that the balance of her deposits in the Nigeria banking system, as we know it today, stands at $31.4 million –‘only’! You remind yourself that you know the Patience in question. She has never been, at any time, a household name in the Nigerian business environment or elsewhere. The highest position she ever attained in her almost non-existent civil service career was permanent secretary. Bayelsa State Governor Seriake Dickson gave her a ludicrous ghost worker appointment for the sake of his own political survival. Beyond that, she was nothing more than the wife of a man who became president by a stroke of fate. So you find yourself wondering how she managed to earn $31.4 million. Has she been paying her taxes? What investment yielded her such abundant profit? Where might one locate a trail of sweat or handprints of labor or any in-demand product or service that could account for her Olympian dollar heap? Her so-called $31.4 million balance, mind you, is not a picture of the total leafage on her money trees. It’s only a pruned remainder. Patience had been cutting off many Branches since the Nigerian electorate evicted her husband and her from Aso Rock. She had been disappearing money from those accounts up until when they were frozen. EFCC placed a No Debit Order on the four accounts on 7th July, 2016. The fourteen months between May 29, 2015 and July 7, 2016 is an ample period for her to significantly reduce her lodgments to a pittance. There is no way to make sense of the phenomenon of a Patience Jonathan boasting $31.4 million as part of her net worth. More so, you cannot understand the surpassing stupidity of her public declaration that she is the owner of an amount of money she is absolutely incapable of earning legitimately. Her coming out of the closet as an amazon of money laundering is as outrageous as it is stupefying. The Patience Jonathan that Nigerians know cannot make a clean $1 million except through a lottery. Her claim to ownership of $31.4 million she obviously stole from the Nigerian treasury is the salt of a lie on the wound of a heist. Her preposterous possessiveness resembles the spectacle of a thief pleading that the stolen goods that represent the collective wealth of an entire neighborhood belongs to him! It’s clear that keeping those millions of dollars for too long gave Patience a false sense of ownership. Possession is nine-tenths of the law. But, the truth is that the number of years she has had the spoils doesn’t make her the rightful owner. Neither does it make her less a thief. If anything, every new day she kept the stolen goods made her a more impenitent thief! And talking of repentance, Patience is impervious to it. Even a close shave with prison has not transformed her covetous core. In 2006, during her husband’s term as governor of Bayelsa state, EFCC caught her twice trying to launder money. First time, Patience tried to launder 104 million naira through her ‘business associate’, a certain Nancy Ebere. Ms. Ebere implicated Patience in a sworn affidavit. Second time, Patience was intercepted at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport while trying to smuggle out a baggage of $12.5 million cash. She escaped prosecution on the two occasions. She was allowed to go home and sin some more. Obasanjo had, before then, decided to make her meek-looking husband the running mate of Governor Umaru Musa Yar’Adua. So he declined to authorize EFCC to expose the wife of the future vice president as a kleptomaniac! The free pass gave Patience the impression that she was above the law. She could steal without fear of any repercussion. If she was caught, she would not do the time. She would be set free to relearn the art of stealing and escaping with the booty! It turns out that the companies Patience used to launder money were fairy tale entities. They had no earthly address, no staffer, no robot. The firms did not exist. She conjured $31.4 million out of nothingness – by sheer magic! Patience Jonathan’s $31.4 million is the stuff of occult fortune. What makes this case very grievous is that Patience is insisting on her right to squander all the money she has stolen. She says she has a right to ‘own property.’ She implies that the Nigerian people have no right…not even to the right to reclaim what is left of her loot! Patience Jonathan once requested Nigerians to call her by the new name of “Mama Peace.” Her concept of ‘peace’ is totally divorced from justice. She wants to be left alone. Her definition of ‘peace’ is a state of respect for her ‘right’ to consume millions of dollars of Nigerian taxpayer money!

seguno2: 1.The Abachas have been forced to give up most of their loot since 1999.Even now..the loot is still being recovered. 2.As for Ms Yaradua...for now there is no open investigation on her.When there is, you can talk. 3.So, Ms Jonathan must be allowed to steal because she is from the South? While many Southerners are broke? Has the money that Matan Abacha stolen benefited Kano or the far Nawth? 4.Ms Jonathan stole your money....and you people are defending her.And then you will be asking why we don't have good roads, schools, power, etc.... 5.Ms Jonathan and Ms Abacha and all thieves , including those in this present govt regardless of tribe must vomit out our money. ElDaIllest: So...because of injustice..Ms Jonathan must keep the money....your money...that she stole because Northerners? You are behaving EXACTLY like them Northerners who defend theives from their side....see how it is benefiting them. Remain in poverty. seguno2: So that Ms Jonathan can keep her loot....we must restructure.. OK....don't complain when your restructuring does not work. Nigerians!....with ideas like this, no wonder we can NEVER fight corruption. And the sad thing is that there are Northerners who think the same way about their corrupt leaders. 3 Likes 1 Share |
