Patience & I Are Staying Away for 12Months - Jonathan

Former President Goodluck Jonathan While commiserating with the Awolowo's over the death of Chief Hannah Awolowo said himself and Patience has been hiding and had decided to do that for at least twelve(12) months but for the death of Mrs Awolowo that brought them out from their hiding.

Jonathan’s Words;

"Ordinarily, we wouldn’t have been mourning but mama was a rare mother. She was a woman of virtue described in the Bible and she was a mother to all of us; a mother whose milk of kindness we still need, her milk of encouragement we still need, her milk of advice we still need and today she’s no more with us. We, just like the immediate children, and indeed this country, have missed her. Within this period, myself and my wife have been hiding; we don’t even go out. We thought we’ll be hiding for at least twelve months. But in this particular case, we cannot hide. So, we have come for the condolence and to encourage our brothers and sisters that we are together. God brought her for all of us. She just had to be the direct mother of few but she’s a mother to all. We shall mourn more than even the direct children would.”he said
