PDP govs confront Jonathan over First Lady

patience

It was gathered that most leaders of the party were not happy at the meddling of the First Lady in clear party affairs.
A highly respected PDP stalwart said President Jonathan risked protest votes from party members to save the country from further embarrassment by the First Lady.
The source who craved anonymity told our reporter, “I have spoken to many elders in the party and they said they would not vote for President Jonathan because of his wife. Even myself will not vote for PDP.
“It is not because we hate the president but we can no longer cope with the overbearing influence of his wife. So, expect among other things protest votes against Jonathan by even PDP members.”
The source added that at a recent meeting with the president, some of the governors tabled the issue of the president’s wife’s overbearing influence in political affairs.
According to the source, the governors sought to extract commitment from President Jonathan that his wife should not impose candidates on their states in 2015.
Buttering the argument, the source referred to the scenario in Rivers State where Patience Jonathan is leading a campaign to make former Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike Governor.
The source added, “The party elders are watching with shame the macabre dance in Rivers State by the First Lady. Recently, the First Lady visited Nyesom Wike in his house in Port Harcourt.
“In that televised visit, she held Wike’s hand and placed it in the hand of Dr. Peter Odili. It is an endorsement and it has never happened before. That singular act is unbecoming of a First Lady. With what she is doing in Rivers, we won’t be surprised if PDP loses that state to APC”.
The source added that in the history of Presidency in Nigeria, no First Lady was allowed by her husband to desecrate the office of the President the way Dame Patience had done.
So in order word Mrs first lady stay out of it.
