WITH ALL MY LOVE TO DAME JONATHAN


Dear Dame Patience Jonathan,
I accord you the respect due to your office. It isn’t an easy feat being the wife of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It is an honour and a privilege most women dream about and wouldn’t mind coming true….oh what bliss!!! to wake up every morning knowing that almost everything is at your beck and call…yes, almost everything but not everything…
I know that you know that as the wife of the number one citizen of Nigeria, you have both critics and fanatics …….this is because you are the epitome of femininity in the office of the Presidency.
You have found yourself assessed by print and social media . Your publicists have wondered why, oh why, our Patience is dragged into the politics and all “what-not” of the Nigerian entity. Madam, wonder no further, it’s pretty simple…..
You have showed so much vigour in the Rivers State “politic-drama” than you have about the #ChildNotBride campaign, last time I checked; I haven’t heard your voice joining other mothers to condemn this dastardly act.
Just maybe if you lend your voice to the #ChildNotBride campaign, the likes of Senator Yerima will see reason why a young female child isn’t a wife “material”   
You have showed so much vigour getting women from all works of life through the auspices of Nigerian Council of Women Society to close the streets of Abuja(August 15,2013) ….last time I checked, I haven’t heard your voice joining others to find a solution to the on-going ASUUASUU strike……
Just maybe, if you can concede 50% of the feeding budget of ASO ROCK for the year 2013, to our Finance Minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala to meet ASUU demands, so our undergraduates can go back to school
You have showed so much emotions berating those who haven't paid you  condolence visits on the demise of your mother, Madam Charity Obah, ….last time I checked, I haven’t heard that you paid condolence visits to the several families who have lost wife (mother), husband (father), children, loved ones and property in the several bomb blasts that have rocked the country since your husband, Mr. President took over the helm of affairs in Nigeria.
Just maybe, if you take the bible injunction to “mourn with those who mourn” by paying a condolence visit to show the nameless and helpless families that in their pain and grief, they are loved selflessly…  
I could go on and on with my endless list, however…just maybe, very soon; your voice will be heard
Yours sincerely,
Sykik

  1. Abeg conserve your energy and leave Madam P to continue 'chopping the life of her head'

    Maybe this letter will get to her before May 2015...that is if the Nigerian Postal Service still works or if this would 'abracadabrily' drop into her mailbox (assuming she has one) or if she could take a break from all the incessant bickering and politicking to think about the issues that really matter to the people 'they' are supposed to be leading.

    It really is well with this nation.

    1. Her PR personnel are obviously her puppets because I don't want to believe that they are as lame as we read in their rejoinders

  4. Sometimes I wonder about the priorities of those in authority.

  5. Sometimes you wonder if they are so busy that they are unable to read newspapers or visit internets to know what is happening in their own land. shey if their people shield them from reading the dailies, shey dem dey also block them from accessing the internet? it is just a case of misplaced priorities or being politically correct. if she lends her voice to the "child not bride" campaign, permutations and combinations will be scattered. So it is safer for them to jeun soke. However, nobody should reel out imaginary achievements when they are no longer in power!

  7. It is sad my sis. I wish she could see this. The goings on in our polity is pathetic, especially when one travels to more organized societies and sees order and good governance, even though they may still have their own hiccups and clogs in the wheel. Maybe...just maybe...one day!!!

    1. After her near death experience, I thought she knew better. Our leaders are so self-centered it's appalling

  9. I really wish she could get to read this......I actually wanted to post it to her dear husband's page but how foolish of me! Of course you cannot post stuff to his page......You would think that her PR people would pick up these things you have mentioned and raised with her.........I refuse to feel helpless. I will continue to pray. These our leaders will not kill my hope for my country*smh*
