A report written by Punch Editorial Board
Each time the wife of the President, Patience Jonathan, hits the road with her long motorcade, including bulletproof and bombproof limousines, or is having a whale of a time at an event, drivers and commuters who find themselves on her routes always have to live with the bitter experience of the encounter. As police empty the roads of traffic, forcing drivers to wait as her glamorous convoy drifts by, motorists are trapped in traffic for hours on end, while social and economic life of the affected community is brought to a halt abruptly.
The recent visit of Mrs. Jonathan to Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, in which her security details forcibly grounded the movement of residents, is the latest of such excesses that Nigerians have been forced to endure for the past three years. This impunity must stop.
Acording to newspaper reports, Mrs.
Jonathan’s security arrangement paralysed activities in the Port
Harcourt Government Reservation Area for the four days of her visit.
Armoured personnel carriers were deployed at two points, while
gun-wielding operatives manned the points leading to her private
residence. Many people missed their appointments because they were
prevented from moving in and out of their houses.
When she came to Lagos last year, on a
“thank-you visit” to some women groups for electing her husband
president, she enacted a similar repulsive scenario. During the visit,
Lagos residents were subjected to an unprecedented road blockade, which
gave rise to an unnerving five-hour traffic that grounded all human and
economic activities. The First Lady was attending that event at Ocean
View Restaurant on Adetokunbo Ademola Street, Victoria Island.
Mrs. Jonathan’s misdemeanour, which
still resonates more than a year after it happened, forced Governor
Babatunde Fashola to lament, “Lagosians were needlessly inconvenienced….
It dawned on me the need for public officers generally to be more
sensitive to the people we serve. It is particularly worrisome that this
(she) is not an elected person. I think we all must check how security
agencies use the movement of high officers, especially VIPs, to disrupt
citizens and taxpayers, whose money is used to fuel all the vehicles and
all the apparatus that we use to block the roads against them. It
should not get to the level that we close the roads in the state because
VIPs want to pass.” It cannot be said better.
But not long after the ridiculous
show of power in Lagos, Mrs. Jonathan headed for Warri, Delta State,
where she also caused hardship to residents through her security
arrangements. Needless to say, these foul-ups compound gridlocks on our
roads. On a few occasions, the First Lady has also broken protocol.
During President Goodluck Jonathan’s visit to the United States in
September 2012, she breached protocol by disembarking from the aircraft
before the President, and shaking hands with officials waiting on the
tarmac while her husband was still coming down from the plane. The First
Lady is setting a bad example for wives of governors.
The position of the First Lady in the
United States, from where the convention spread to other countries, is
not an elected one, carries no official duties, and attracts no salary.
But it glows with much glamour and the occupier is expected to handle
the position with sublime grace. In the United Kingdom, the role of the
Prime Ministerial Consort is not official and as such whoever occupies
the office is not given a salary or official duties. Many of them prefer
to remain very much in the background. Indeed, the late Denis Thatcher
once summed up the role of the ideal prime ministerial spouse as
“always present, never there.” This is the ideal.
But operating under the
loosely-defined, unconstitutional office of the “First Lady,” Mrs.
Jonathan has been bringing the highest office in the land into disrepute
since her husband assumed full duties as President in May 2010, by her
public conduct. Her behaviour – when there is no reason for it – is
leaving many citizens who have had their rights trampled on bitter but
helpless.
This is not the practice in civilised
societies. The basic requirement of civilised democracy is that
everyone plays by the rules and that the rules command public
confidence. In October 2011, it was reported that a stunned 27-year-old
Indian woman was so agitated that she enquired from David Cameron, who
chose to travel in a tube train during rush hour, “Excuse me, are you
the Prime Minister?” The Prime Minister was reportedly travelling on the
London Underground for an appointment. The United States’ security
services offer maximum protection to Michelle Obama while, at the same
time, causing minimal inconvenience to other motorists and citizens. It
is as outrageous as it is gravely uncivilised for official cortèges to
take pleasure in inflicting pains on the people that such officials
claim to be serving.
The itinerary of the First Lady can
be smoothly planned without compromising her safety and the convenience
of the citizens. Mrs. Jonathan must recognise that power is ephemeral
and should learn from the past occupants of the office who history does
not favourably remember because they did incalculable damage to the
image of the First Family. Fashola, who, as a governor, does not use
sirens in his limited convoy, and does not harass other road users,
offers a useful lesson in public morality and decorum. Even with the
aura surrounding the office of President of the United States, whenever
Barack Obama is visiting any part of America, information is fully
circulated to the locality well ahead of time, and locals are given
alternative routes that cause minimum inconveniences to use.
It is President Jonathan’s duty to
caution his wife to stop this regime of offensive illegality that has
tainted the Presidency and presented Nigeria in a bad light.

Hmmmm...ok o..chewin my agege bread n. crossin 3rd mainland bridge..wetin illitracy n money miss road dey cause .
So on point!! First and foremost, expunge the "office of the first lady" without delay, it has no use or meaningful effect, just an avenue to waste public funds. And then, we need not compare our first lady with that of the States and all, not at all, the distance is too much, LOL! The grammar too! LOL!
Illiterate woman,she loves the attention so she must create that awareness,as stupid as her husband.
I hope she gets to not only read dis piece but also address d situation. Lovely piece I must say
By the look of things, Mr President does not wield any sense of responsibility over the acts of that his wife. The woman na that kain woman wey walk before her hubby. She once addressed widows her fellows. Mr President dey fear that one 1st.
Even if it was a fling must he sing about it,OMO no Rhymes for ur mouth na why u cast the Girl...I heard his dick size is nothing to write home about.
Isnt this the same woman who compared herself to OPRAH? lol comedy.
Isnt this the same woman who compared herself to oprah on twitter before deleting her shameful account? Pathetic. Not one humbling bone in her body ..
This woman is just an Illiterate in every sense...She probably thinks its part of ''showing-off''...let her enjoy it while it lasts o...cos very soon she go soon dey stuck for traffic....
Nwanyia maranma Oo!!
Very well said. Right on point.
Lol @ bullet proof n bombproof

Until political offices are made unattractive,cases like this will never cease to occur. Here's a woman who isn't as intellectually enlightened as one would expect the wife of a president to be yet,she weilds so much power that most people are careful not to get in her bad books than they are of the president's . I can only blame Nigerians for the non-challant attitude they exhibit over their government's apathy towards them...Oh well,this is exactlty what u get when u vote in a man who can't run his home to run a country. Instead of talking his illiterate wife out of this messy act,Guess what ur president is gon' do;drink himself to stupor,trust me I know. I'm indeed sorry for Nigeria and Nigerians alike,you lot not only celebrate mediocrity,you exalt political office holders too and that's just low!
Couldn't have been said any better... So true I totally agree with the writer,remember when she came to ph I was in traffic for over 3hours,was really really pissed!!! Something should and must be done about this
I totally agree wiff this write-up. Someone needs to check that FAT woman's excesses cuz its gettin too much and nigerians have had enuff from that Stupid old hag,its a shame that her husband can't control her excesses sha. She shuld learn how protocol is done and stop jumpin like 'oya'
Even if u talk n complain frm now till tmr we ve illetrates as leaders so nothing will change monkeys will never behave like human beings
Linda thank you for this post. We nigerians are not finding it funny at all. I hope our first madam at the top will be reading this. *clears throat* Errmmm Madam patience ebelechukwu umblella Jonathan abeg oo take it easy on this your convoy. In abuja it is worst believe me. I even heard last year (dunno how true) that our Madam detained a man that is supposed to be married for some days because he was rushing to church on his wedding day and coincidentally Madam wants to take the route. No matter how many years you spend there remember you will leave the post one day ooo.
Jonathan bull-dog Okupe PLS don't come and reply trash here ooo in d name of PR cos I know stupidity is your calling. BOLADE
Mrs Jonathan is an illiterate. she has ridiculed the highly revered position of the first lady. Mrs Babangida will always turn in her grave each time Mrs Jonathan is refereed to as the First lady of Nigeria.
Linda, honestly its not everything that shld be on this blog... I mean its obvious one of the opposition is trying to score a cheap point.
Yh, her acts shld be checked!
Goodluck and Patience Jonathan's story is like that of Jezebel. Time will tell on how theirs will end.
It is what happens when a woman cannot control herself and her husband cannot caution her. God knows who the mule is and who the rider is in this picture
Abeg shut up if u hav nothing 2 say. Is She d 1st person 2 do this?
Beautifully written...thank you for this
Well, what can any one say of a Local Ijaw man and his even more Local wife.let her bask in it. But like her predecessors, her days are numbered! In her case she will drop below oblivion! Thieving fucks!
May God deliver us4rm jonathan&cohorts
Correct,G̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡D̶̲̥̅ for her.she should lead by example A̶̲̥̅̊₪d̶̲̥̅̊ stop being α̇̇̇̊ bad model τ̲̅ȍ women,English sef,she ₪☺ sabi speak.
well said. Nigerians love frivolities, ka ri mi,na me dey there.
O well, dts what happens when a numb skull and his illitarate wife are given power...they'll obviously abuse it...kmt
Effects of PDP
This woman again, chei. She looks decent in this picture though. First time ever. Clumsy woman.
I Concur!!! She must be cautioned. This has to stop.
correct!!!! Thot I was the only one that noticed she broke protocol!!
I remember when Obama visited Iowa City, Iowa, a city way smaller than any of the big cities in Nigeria. Nothing was disrupted, none whatsoever. The only thing noticeable were the blackhawk helicopters hovering ahead. The roads were free, a section was only blocked off when his motorcade was moving. And this is the most powerful man on earth. It's just a shame, our own leaders will deliberately trample on our rights and still come begging for our votes (re-election). Better wise-up people or this is just the beginning of things to come.
her excesses are just too much for us to bear, an individual`s presence will put the whole state`s activity to a halt. all I can I do is to keep praying for this country.
HATER! IF U WERE GEJ WON'T U PROTECT UR WIFE?
punch editorial said it well,i love the boldness they display not scared that their lives are in danger for what they put in paper,but i am nt happy that they only cautioned her for her unruly behaviour,they missed the grammatic blunder part,this woman has brought too much disgrace to this nation,i am sure she gives her hubby orders on the running of affairs of the country...i dont care what anyone says but all i knw is that she is should mind what she does to a thousand because when kamar happens i dont think she will be able to shield herself from the punishment...i despise her!
Tired of the (much talk zero action syndrome ) in our dearly blessed country Nigeria. Going forward?????............. Nothing is done,it's not only her,it's most of these elected officials who feel oppression is leadership. Zurielle's opinion.
Oju ori ola ri meaning: her entire generation has never seen wealth, so lacks the ability manage it. She is a stack illiterate with no decorum, very crass and lacks the basic tenets of less is more.i also blame all the stupid sycophants around her who cannot advise her in the 21st century. a leader with no qualms and drum beating sycophants to dance with her. very sad for a country with so much to offer.
Iya were,do u blame her........with her bullet grammar let thunder fire ur yanch mrs badluck#poko#

It is so obvious that she is the one wearing the pants in the family so "Jona" cannot say anything!!!
From the political point of view, if our electoral process were working properly and not a case of "election rigging", "Jona's" party would have been the ones cautioning them both of hurting the party's image in the eyes of the people and getting re-elected as a party.
All of you.....God and the people Of Nigeria will surprise you in 2015!!!!
This editorial is politically offensive. What prompted this editorial? We have better issues in this country that can be used as 'editorial' than this. The person that wrote it supose to know that every body has its own individual differences and so should stop complaining. Why wont she act like that with the current security situation of the country. Please let him return d money Buhari or any oda person gave him or her to publish this.
I thank God for the life of the person who wrote this article. I have never disliked a First Lady as I have disliked this money-miss-road-illiterate of a woman who has made a complete mockery of the office of the Presidency of Nigeria. I saw her in a picture with Michelle Obama and I cringed so hard I thought my face would be permanently affixed with the look of utter panic that she would say something stupid.
This woman has always had this arrogance, it is just that money allowed her to be able to live out her true colors. I cannot wait for the day her and her husband will slink back underground from where they came from to be a blight on the face of Nigeria.
I don't blame her, no be Nigerians where dey worship money dey allow the nonsense to continue? If our govt was FOR THE PEOPLE AND BY THE PEOPLE instead of FOR THE POWERFUL WHOSE PALMS HAVE BEEN GREASED AND BY THE POWERFUL WHO DON'T GIVE A SH*T, would we have to endure this woman? There is a fifedom in Nigeria and if you aren't part of the bourgoisie then you are in proletariat suffering and smiling.
@anon3:07pm ur family must consist on mainly slaves

Lmao!! Concorde Hotel!! I concur!! Plsssss! Tnk me later!
The funny thing is dt most of u commenting here will do worse if u were in her shoes, power is intoxicating n its difficult for most to have self control
In as much as her execesses can't be controlled we shld not compare our dear Nigeria to d likes of US nd UK who has a detailed and balanced security system for their Govt officials in terms of kidnapping, road attacks etc. But stil doesn't rule out that this woman nid to be financially, officially nd grammatically caged from causing menace to the public.
Idiot firstly he's not ijaw he's Ogbia, 2ndly where he's from doesn't have anything to do wiv dis so STFU if u don't have what to say

Well Said...He who has ears let them hear!!

Hmmmmmh! Nigerians or Lib'ers ur comments r so abusive this is d 'first lady' we r talkin abt here yes she might b guilty of all that has been written but it does not call for all this abuse. imagine if she were ur mother,aunty or sister..... Oh gush! Thoz comments r irritating.
It's *concur* thank me now!
Exactly. IF ONLY. I commend the writer for this. He did well. Wrote our minds. The other day the President came to Enugu, the airports roads were blocked while he sipped wine in Govt. House. OUTRAGEOUS
And wat has dis got to do with the above post? Abi u miss road?? No dey sleep for bicycle oo
I strongly concur with this write -up because in 2010 when we had our convocation in UNIPoRT,when she was conferred honorary degree that I don't know how she got it.we students that sufferd for 4 to 5 years were outside the arena and under the rain.She occupied the whole place.
Well written! Madam jona pls drop positive records #walksaway#
I'm afraid that things will continue to be the same until the youth of this country comes together and protest,for goodness sake ,Brazil is far better than Nigeria and yet protest is being held there. To be honest Nigerian youths,i think you're all crazy,You use social sites to propagate useless stuffs...I'm so pissed off...but not lyk before cos I'm also leaving this bleak,useless ,frustrating,life destroying country soon enough for USA for good...**SMILES**

She can never be this woman but our "first lady" so mind ur mouth, in this case I rest my questions on Linda and Punch as said -
(1) In a state like Rivers I knew, if u re first lady what will u do in such situation,when even on a normal day its still very busy
(2) Will u b happy or not talk seeing our first lady trekking or in side KEKE, perhaps has Jets that do carry her even for near by village or any where whether far or near.
(3). Do suggest her to follow hold up in this type of country that has up to or more than '50' dialect with uncivilised thinking to compare the UsA u mention, country where u neighbour is not even happy that u re suffering,still want u dead
.........Think !!b4 u post.............Ogaoooooo
Even if she tries 2 read a paragraph she won't understand... Dumb,clueless n shameless 1st couple *Kmt rong grammer 4 rong pipu rubbish!
Biko, it is concur. Don't u have T9 in ur phone? #Rme#
This woman might be an illetrate but I don't think the president can actually talk 2 her, she behaves like an agbero. Like someone hu has or don't know what to do with money.
Heeei, 'traffick jamb' kwa? Lol. Honey, it's traffic jam.
What a story of a nation...where d first lady is more feared and respected more than d president...jonathan....its a sorry case for u Ooº°˚ ˚°ºoo...mr first lady....

@all, its not enof for us to seat down here and keep analysing this. The innate question is...'"what can be done about it"?...who can speak for us? How will the first lady knw dat she's putting the electorate/tax payers into undue hardship/inconvenience??.
That is my take on this issh
its unfortunate some people dont see anything good about the Jonathans.it is only when she is kidnapped that i know you people will clap ur hands,too bad.the woman has done nothing bad.pls pray to have adaughter who one day be like Dame JONATHAN.No need for hateful editorials,shogbo.....

Anonymous 5:48PM. Yes we shouldn't even go far to compare Nigeria with the UK or US. Let's bring it back home, starting with Lagos.shey Fashola's wife isn't the first lady of Lagos? Most people don't even know how she looks like. The first lady of Nigeria should be seen but not heard. What fashola said is just so on point
Una just they know? Stay there n go n vote for person wey no get shoes
I heard you have to kneel before her if you want to talk to her, even if it's for 4 hours. Such a brute!

You won't even know it's the queen in her green land rover (she sits in one of the 2 land rovers) and a police escort on a bike, not drawing unnecessary attention to herself.

ahahahha gobe
Jezz!! This was well written. Kudos to the editorial
"she breached protocol by disembarking from the aircraft before the President,......"
Well Dear Punch Editorial Board,
the President is first a husband before being president, that he chooses to allow his wife embarked first or she forced it aint non of your business. it shows the gentleman that he is. Not like you over pompous he-goats and jerks.
That she embarked first doesn't strip him of his political office.
Some Nigerians are sometimes so egoistical.
i would clip her wings for her now

"Concord" "jamb" and more to come on comments !! So now we know say no be only our 1st lady dey murder d tin.abeg make una leave her for us
I do not even need to read further as Austin just said it all..... Let's not forget that her predecessors did not have Boko Haram nd kidnappers watching their every move and waiting for a slip and that the American security system is detailed and functional. Yes her actions are excessive but they are understandable. Its not like she comes to your neighbourhood everyday. I'm sure you can handle one day of inconvenience. Besides we experience traffic at least once a week so just ignore the fact that the one you're in is caused by a public officer and u'll live long #thankmelater
U mean d lyks of ur uncle Obj, Tinubu & co...
Well well well, she is the first lady and there is nothing anyone can do about it till God says so, but your excellency ma please remember you are our mother and be more considerate ooo when you are on the road. pls Nigerians take it easy.
Lol @fikky. I also Vanguard. LMAO! Dear Libbers if you must comment and you know your grammar is suspect, feel free to write in Pidgin. Its even better sef. I concord indeed. Choi!!!!!!!
what an article? so nice! gosh, its about time we nigerians start to come out and start doing things like this so they know that we may only be tolerating it but not and never will be convenient with their ways. I hate our govts with passion!
It is a joke to say "It is President Jonathan’s duty to caution his wife to stop this regime of offensive illegality that has tainted the Presidency and presented Nigeria in a bad light". Says who?. It is obvious that the man cannot control his wife. He is too lilly livered to control the woman. The woman is oppressing him as well. Him go marry woman wey pass am. mtchww
LMAOoooooooooooo!
She's only but a human,sometimes one can make a mistake...she needs to be corrected amicably.💕
All of u that are commenting am not here to applaud her that what she did was right but before u condemn her and mr presidet u got to be double sure of this post if it it is true before u speak judgement to yourself, remember what goes around comes around. How would u feel if u are maliciously spoken against publicly on a falsified information
That one is the only one u know, more than two pem sec has been sacked at state house bcos the question how she has been collecting money, a lot of contractors re been owed since last yr bcos the money the had is allowance for first lady to travel. She will write that she needs 200m to travel with 100 people, if u question her, ur retirement or transfer letter is the next to appear on ur table. God is watching.
You 4 just add 'SY' to d beginning of ur name.
This is hilarious
@ PURPLE HART UNA WICKED HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Linda you are wicked mr/mrs/master or miss I CONCORD just remain anonymous biko.
back to aunty patience, her case can be compared to the proverb you can take an animal out of the jungle but you can't take the jungle out of the animal. she is repressed with serious complex issues hence the constant need to remind us all that she's the 1st lady.
I thisday! Lmfao!
Well, she's the first lady!!
