Don't be silly; I didn't invite a scumbag like you to respond to my post. Keep your filthy opinion to yourself.

@ Topic. As I suspected, the adversarial Nation Newspaper's report might have been overly manipulated to suit Tinubu's ACN's purposes. The Nation's report makes it seem as if the First Lady was asking for constitutional provisions that would guarantee first ladies retirement benefits - by viture of their first ladyship. Clearly, that was not what she meant. In her own (admittedly ineloquent) way of speaking, she meant that first ladies should be allowed to pursue their own careers and earn their own retirement benefits consequently. Evidence of this can be found in two other more credible reports from more credible national newspapers

Another dimwit. It seems you toads have a massive blackout in your brains. If you can't differentiate between the two reports, then that is YOUR problem.

For the avoidance of doubt, Patience Jonathan did NOT ask for retirement benefits based on the position of First Lady. She asked that in some way, first ladies should be allowed to pursue their own careers (as she purports to be doing by taking up the Perm Sec appointment), so that they can earn their own retirement benefits - FROM THEIR CAREERS. That is the context that was lost in the Nation's report, which was a deliberate misrepresentation to suit their adversarial purposes. The blind hatred for Patience Jonathan wouldn't allow you bats to spot this critical contextual difference.

Tell her to put up posters and start campaigning all over the country under the platform of RMPP "Rretarded and Mumu Peoples Party"
Re: Dame Patience Wants Presidents' Wives Roles Included In Constitution by dominique(f): 9:29am On Jul 21, 2012
what about all the billions she 'allegedly' laundered as Bayelsa first lady? that should be more than any retirement benefit she's proposing. just cos the case was swept under the carpet doesn't mean we've forgotten. i don't think i'll ever see a greedier person in this life-time. still people come here and justify she and her husband's (abi na wife :-/) antics. it is well with us naija.

ypzilanti: Just shows you the type of people we have ruling us.

I argued with friends before the last election that the calibre of wife GEJ has is an indication of his character.

I was told that the topic was off limits.

It's a good point if the man is your electrician: Your electricain's wife does not contribute to the wiring of your house.

But a President's, wife is likely going to affect your life because it's lonely at the top and the President will likely debate issues with his wife on that Presidential Bed. He will gain or lose by the intelligence/dumbness of his wife.

In conclusion, unless GEJ's marriage was an arranged marriage, he was showing poor decision making by this choice long before he became President.

Irrelevant. What has GEJ's choice of wife got to do with his character? Besides, he made that decision a very long time ago, when he wasn't president. Decision making is a function of many variables.

With your level of thinking, I don't believe your decision making is any better than the president's.

I suggest Dame should take time out to go and serve Michelle Obama for 6 months so she can know a lil bit of what is expected of her.

[quote author=D-Explorer]It's unfortunate what NL has become when it comes to GEJ issue and that of his wife. Several comments here are simply out-of-content, no point made, no fact stated. Why should everyone sleep and turn their heads to THE SAME direction. Even those so little to be her grandsons and daughters has subscribed to insult and curses. Even if you have issues with the government, was it GEJ's fault that you lack appropriate morals? Are these the generation that call themselves leaders? The ir

Mr man,

Don't try to spin the story around.
this below is from the link you posted.
“We the wives of political office holders, if our name is not in the constitution and our husbands will retire with full benefits then they should find a role for us when they are amending the constitution. They should look into our own affairs,” she said.
http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/my-promotion-was-deserved-says-patience-jonathan/120464/

What has her career got to do with the Constitution.
Did the constitution disallows the President's wife from working,pursing her career or running a business- NO
She should not bring our constitution into her personal problems.

Professor Man, what you're quoting does not invalidate my point; neither does it validate the PRINCIPAL reason all of you are castigating Patience Jonathan on this thread, viz, that she wants the constitution amended to include retirement benefits for first ladies. That was what the Nation's report wrongly insinuated - which is what most posters here are feasting on. Can you show me anywhere in the Thisday or Vanguard reports where it was indicated that Mrs Jonathan said that?

oge4real: I suggest Dame should take time out to go and serve Michelle Obama for 6 months so she can know a lil bit of what is expected of her.

Technically, nothing is expected of her. She might as well be a bag that the President brought with him to Aso Rock, as the Constitution DOES NOT recognize the role of 'woman/man married to the President'. The major reason she is heard is because people pay so much attention to her. If no one did, and she was seen as any other Nigerian without a Government post, much of this would not even make the back pages.
