A day after opposition leaders called for the resignation of her husband, First Lady Dame Patience Jonathan has leapt to his defence, describing President Goodluck Jonathan as the answer to Nigeria’s myriad of problems.
The First Lady, speaking in Ilorin, Kwara State at the launch of her NGO and distribution of empowerment items to women, also asked Nigerian women to rally round her husband as he seeks solution to the insurgency in the north-eastern part of the country.
She said: “For the First time in Nigeria, women are recognised, respected, heard and given opportunities to be eqqualy partners in the developmental efforts of our dear nation.
“It is now left for us, women, to reciprocate this gesture by supporting and standing by him as his transforms Nigeria. We Nigerian women could not have had it beter, Jonathan is the answer and PDP is the party.”
