PATIENCE
JONATHAN AND AMAECHI REUNITE AT ABIA
It appears that the feud between Nigeria’s former first
lady Patience Jonathan and minister of transport, Rotimi Amaechi, is over.
The duo were spotted on Saturday, August 20 at the funeral
mass of former minister of foreign affairs, Ojo Madueke, in Abia state.
Patience and Amaechi were constantly at loggerheads during
the last administration as they battled for control of Rivers state where they
both come from.
It was alleged that the real quarrel between Jonathan’s
wife and Amaechi,started when the first lady tongue-lashed the former governor
for the demolition of houses in her town Okrika to make way for educational
structures.

Patience’s grouse is that Amaechi looked certain to
demolish and compensate the people without first seeking their consent;
Amaechi’s is about the manner in which the first lady addressed the matter in
public without according him due respect as man constitutionally saddled with
the task of running the state.
Although there’s only an eight-year gap between the two of
them, Patience once referred to Amaechi as “my son”.
