May be you should go and listen to Fashola's wife, Gbenga Daniels wife, The Gov of Calabars wife to mention a few. The problem is that the woman schooled in Oporopopo Nursery and privary school and further her tertiary education Aporoko Comprehensive school, Ishakigba Aporoko Ibekinja.

not surprised. behind every lousy and mouth running confused man, there is always a fat backside ugly woman with a rowdy voice and half baked brain with only interest in stealing!

You are talking to my first lady you are thereby sentenced to more life on Nairaland

I saw the lady giving a speech in Calabar. Even edikainkong wey they're english funky were laughing at her.

Show me a mans wife and Ill tell you what kinda man he is.

This is to show you that one can aim for Aso Rock without good grammar. Ride on Mrs First Lady. I wish you sooned recover from this blunder!!!

this is funny and very embarrassing - did no one teach this woman basic grammar?

I think GEJ should stop allowing his wife speak in public she is actually making him look funny.

did she not learn the correct use of are and is in primary school?

With our money on her laps, she should hire an oxford prof. To learn simple english.

GEJ married her as a house wife, and when he became president, she authomatically becomes first lady.

What matters to GEJ is the language she speaks in the bedroom when them dey do the thing and that language is universal Oh Ah! chei, ewo, mmmmmh i am comiiiing, dont stoopp!!!!

yes but as her husband rose in his political career, she should have tried to better herself as well, one can only wonder how she is able to discuss with the wives of fellow leaders around the world.

Housewife or not, she is the first lady of Nigeria.

Obviously, your English is not better than Dame's
The error in the sentence has got nothing to do with grammar

The only mistake she made is that she used 'people' where she ought to have used 'person'
And this is a mistake we all make on a daily basis
And why should she be prosecuted for a common mistake; after all, she is human like the rest of us?

Above all, remove the log in your eyes before trying to correct someone else!

The correct statement goes thus:

" MY HUSBAND, DR GOODLUCK JONATHAN, AND SAMBO, IS A QUIET PEOPLE, "

If her English is good, would it make her a better person?

I would rather have a semi literate but competent and incorruptible first lady than a thieving turai anyday anytime

ok - maths was always my subject and not english and b4 we make this a lesson concerning grammar i think u will find the mistake is more than just using people or person, the whole sentence is incorrect. I doubt I have ever made any claim to be a prof of english and I am not even ashamed to say i use spell check for a lot of things (damn u microsoft word!!!)

I think the point being made here is that she is the first lady of the so call giant of africa - it is embarrassing when u consider her position on the world stage and not nairaland!!

Do you mean what you put in quote above is correct? Let me be clear before I fall the hammer on your head

You guys should be careful the way you criticize Mr. President and his Wife, this is because, God has ordain them to lead us.
So NL, be guarded.

No big deal in this to me.
The Queen of England once made a similar blunder although that was when she was much younger.

She had two simple choices to convey the same message:

My husband, Dr. GEJ, as well as Sambo, is a quiet person
My Husband, Dr. GEJ and Sambo are quiet people

Ode
does Turai emabarass us before the whole world ?
