What does a 72-year-old man have to offer Nigerians? - Patience Jonathan asks


The First Lady of Nigeria, Dame Patience Jonathan yesterday stated that her husband, President Goodluck Jonathan deserved the support of women in the country because he had delivered on the promises he made to Nigerian women in 2011.

She spoke during the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Women Campaign Rally held in Makurdi, the state capital.

Dame Jonathan said, “today pregnant women enjoy free antenatal care, we have realized our 35 percent affirmative action and more women are beginning to realize their potentials under this administration.



She told the women to reject Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, APC, “What does a 72-year-old man have to offer Nigerians?...A 72 year old man has nothing to offer Nigerians.”

Wife of the Benue state Governor, Arch. Yemisi Suswam, in her speech lauded the efforts of Dame Jonathan for carrying women along, particularly in the actualization of 35 percent affirmative action for women.

Mrs Suswam said Benue women were desirous of President Goodluck Jonathan’s return to Aso Rock because of his impressive achievement in all sectors of Nigeria’s economy.

Wife of the Senate President, Mrs Helen Mark, in her speech said the women of the state would vote the PDP in all the elective positions, and urged all women to turn out en-masse to vote all PDP candidates in the elections.

Governor Gabriel Suswam, on his part described the first lady as a reliable woman who had remained firm in supporting her husband to record resounding success in governance.

  6. what a pity? if women actually hv sence of belong as they claim, why can't them join hands together n bring their fellow women in to power? the only opportunity of 35% GEJ gave them they use it in robbing nigerian citizen of their money. they need not carry gone nowadays form their own stealing. like of alison Petroleum minister stella odua aviation minister okonje iwealla who on her own asked GEJ to allow her to run her ministry witout interference. way of looting her own treasury. the only woman dat contested against GEJ n co had 1 vote wit fact dat GEJ gv women free hands to operate. Madam Sarah no vex o. I respect only one woman of late dora akuyuli of blessed memory. women of nowadays are thiefs. President Mugabe is old than GMB yet he is still ruling his country people at 90 older wit 18 yrs.

  9. Jonathan is the one who has nothing to offer Nigerians, except his celebrated corruption. Jonathan is unfit to govern Nigeria because he is worse than Abacha and Babangida when it comes to corruption. It is not the things that Jonathan claims to have achieved during his presidency, but at what cost? A corrupt man at 60 will remain corrupt for life. Corruption is the root of all the evil in Nigeria. That's why Jonathan is unfit to rule the country. At 72, Buhari has a lot to offer the country, including discipline. The country must get rid of Jonathan as its leader, unless it wants to perish.

  16. What your failed to offer, wisdom, integrity and purposeful leadership. You need not bother campaigning if your husband had delivered on his promise. Until the night before the one carrying umbrella on a sunny day will realise that it's additional load.

  18. What a shame asking such question,it's either Mrs Jonathan's parents never lived to get to that age as Buhari for her to know that being wise,responsible and morally sound has got nothing to do with age or her parents were absolutely useless,irresponsible and morally bankrupt when they were about same age as Buhari.Going by her utterances lately I think I realise the sad and unpolished upbringing she had

  25. What have they, younger people - Jonathan, Patience and Sambo offered Nigerians? A 72 years old man is more preferred to the younger ones ruling at moment who wasted public fund all around to be forcefully re-elected. If you do well and your conscience clear you, then there will be no need to run from pillar to post and churches or attacking the gentle old man. Patience you are the downfall of your husband and Govt has been torn and given to a better citizen in Jesus name. Amen.
