Come May 29, 2015 Nigeria will get a new first lady. However. Dame Patience Jonathan will not be forgotten in a hurry.
See 5 things we'll miss about Dame Jonathan.
1. Her spunk filled speeches
Every Nigerian knows that Dame Patience Jonathan is no coward. Her speeches are always filled with courage; more courage than President Goodluck Jonathan could muster most times.
Read up a few of her unforgettable lines below:
''100 political parties put together can never defeat the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, come 2015 presidential election''
''When Maryam Babangida and Mariam Abacha built the Women Centre and the National Hospital they did not carry the buildings when they left government. I will not go with the peace mission building. Women should resist being used to kick against the project. If the project was for men the budget for the project would have long been passed''
''Wetin him (Buhari) dey find again? Him dey drag with him pickin mate. Old man wey no get brain, him brain don die pata pata''
''Nigerian women shine your eyes, don’t go for analogue, go for digital. PDP is digital, APC is analogue''.
2. Her grammatical blunders
The first lady and her broken English had a way of putting smiles on the faces of Nigerians. See some of her very popular grammatical blunders below:
"I can see camera people, are they going to televise us alive?"
''I will rather kill myself than commit suicide''
''I want to commend the doctors and nurses for responding to treatment''
''Ojukwu is dead but his manhood lives on"
''Na only you waka come? ''
''If we don't vote PDP our development will be short. God will not gree''
