The First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan has continued to meddle in the affairs of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), as it has emerged that she has been haranguing the party's governors into sparing the embattled National Chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur.

Tukur has been blamed for much of the crises that have bedevilled the party, leading to calls for his removal by the governors.

His removal was also one of the key demands of the seven aggrieved governors of the party, five of whom have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Their departure notwithstanding, the remaining governors of PDP have continued to push for his ouster on the grounds that it would usher peace and reconciliation in the party.

However, in the bid to stop his removal, the first lady, THISDAY learnt, has in recent days been summoning the governors of the party and mounting pressure on them to drop the idea of Tukur's sack.

It was gathered that some of the governors she has met with include Kogi State Governor, Capt. Idris Wada, with businesswoman, Ms. Bola Shagaya, in attendance.

Sources said that at the meeting, the first lady made it clear that the governors should throw his support behind Tukur, failing which she would use her influence to ensure that he does not get the ticket of the party for a second term.
The sources also disclosed that Mrs. Jonathan extended her campaign to the Akwa Ibom Governor, Godswill Akpabio, and his Abia State counterpart, Theodore Orji.

When she met with them individually, the source said, she informed them that should they insist on Tukur's ouster, she would impede their efforts to determine who their successors will be.

They said: "The first lady is very determined to ensure Tukur remains the chairman of the party, as she is of the view that his sack could make her husband, the president, vulnerable. She also does not have confidence that if Tukur is removed, there is a guaranty that his successor will protect the interest of the president as the elections draw near.

"Others, however, say that the reason she is interferring is because she is backing other governorship aspirants in many states, and a Tukur chairmanship will guaranty her candidates a free ride.

"But her meddlesomeness in the affairs of the party is causing anger and disquiet among the governors who have vowed to resist any attempt on her part to foist her demands on them."
The governors had at a meeting last Friday in Abuja unanimously agreed that Tukur should be shown the door, but given a soft landing to facilitate his exit from office.
They are proposing, among other sweetners, an ambassadorial posting for him to quit as chairman.

The sources said the governors determination to have Tukur sent packing was made worse following his meeting with senators last week, where he promised them that he will back them against the governors and make them full National Executive Committee (NEC) members.

The governors are expected to meet with the president today after the National Economic Council (NEC) meeting to insist on Tukur's ouster.

This the funny thing in life;
When Ameachi was shouting to the high heavens that this unelected and home appendage was unnecessarily meddling into the affairs of Rivers State a lot criticized him for daring to speak against the Jesus of Okirika.
Now most of them will see 1st hand what Ameachi saw and decided to leave.

PS: I think Mama Peace and Turkur are on a mission to make sure GEJ does not come back in 2015.

I would have said her office is not recognized.....however, judging from her antecedence and the dramatic roles she plays whenever her name surfaces in any political situation in the country .... Its lyk we av our first female dictator in Nigeria.... She is by far more politically proactive than any former first lady.....
There is this adage that: chameleon wey dey waka jeje, death dey kill am, talkless of Toad wey come dey nack imself for ground"
Mama peace: take am jeje

mama peace ,show them the hotness of politics.... Obj and lamido are in hot bayelsa pepper soup ryt now.......
Make sure they dnt rest....

Which unfortunate country do they want to send him to? It baffles me how irrationally, politicians reason. You say somebody isn't fit to be your party chairman, yet you want to foist him on the rest of the country as an Ambassador to (mis)represent over 160 million of us abroad. If they are so keen on giving a soft landing, then might as well give him their wives or even their daughters to soft-land on.

Watching and Learning in 3D

Mr Man/woman stop following me about GEJ is a clueless coward come 2015 he shall be shown the way out.
When a President looses the majority in a house of parliament is he referred to as LAME DUCK PRESIDENT. Its just a matter of time before he looses the Senate then some of those Northern States (Katsina, Nassarawa, Bauchi & co) will pull out of PDP for fear of loosing in the general election lets see if its old man Jang & Pa Elechi, sick Chime & Imoke, Daft Orji & Uduaghan, political nwatakiri Obiano, loud mouthed & not so clever Akpabio and inconsequential Dickson that will deliver him in the next election.

The "Patience style of Peace" has just begun. That's what happens when "Baba Transformation" collabo with "Mama Peace"

Nigeria,afganistan and pakistan are the only three countries in the world were polio is endemic...is it not shamefull that nigeria is on such a list? Should'nt eradicating polio and removing our name from that list be the top priority of our first lady? There are a lot of issue affecting women and children in this nation and rather than leading state first ladies in fighting them, this women is busy playing politics. It's just wrong and sad.

This woman can only try such rubbish with miniature governors. If she tries such with Kwankwaso or Lamido I believe she will get a dirty slap right inside the villa.

Kwankwaso that does not even have a first lady. According to him they are not constitutional. Hence no office of first lady

Women affairs is handled by the commissioner of women. No waste of funds and abuse of power

keep on dreaming.DREAM IS FREE!

That's why I respect governors from core northern states. . Nobody can push them around like their southern and middlebelt counterpart. Imagine ordinary Firstlady ordering elected governors like school boys.

This her method will only bring more antagonism for her husband, she should have learnt by now that using brute force to enforce your will does not always go as planned.

Besides what influence does she think she has out side Aso-rock? Even in Abuja sef she is limited not to talk of her home state.

If by a silly fluke she were to become president, Abacha's era will be child's play compared to her and her eventual assassination will be just as disgraceful also. Dictators always have a funny way of being eliminated.

Wetin Tukur tell Mama Piss to have this kind of support from her?
Those governors that allowed her to threaten them are real Otondos.

This woman want to increase political enemies for her husband. Instead of clinging on to the few friends remaining, she de threaten them. I marvel at the cluelessness of Nigeria's first family.
We may likely see more governors running to APC with the reason of "being threathened"

Mama elephant in d news again
