Former first lady Patience Jonathan has disclosed that the reason she does not wish to return to the Presidential Villa, is because of the stress.
Mrs Jonathan made this known on Friday at a colloquium organised to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Nigeria Institute of Public Relations (NIPR).
She said, “If you call me now for villa, I won’t go there. I won’t. Don’t you see how young I am? The stress is so much.
“The stress of Nigeria is so much. If God manages to bring you out of it, you should glorify God and thank him. It is the Lord’s doing and it is marvellous in our eyes.
“He has taken you there once, why do you want to go there again? Me I won’t go oo!!!”
She urged Nigerians to join President Bola Tinubu to make Nigeria great.
“I want to say something dearly from the bottom of my heart, like we, it’s our husbands that are voted for, we are not the people voted for. So we must listen to our husbands and also follow our husbands.
“But, we have one leader, when election comes, who wins becomes our leader and becomes the father of the nation. We need to join hands with that person to make Nigeria great not criticise him; criticising will not help. If you have idea, bring it out because we are to save our country.
“We are to live together. If we go outside there, for me I want to come back home. I don’t have another country than Nigeria. And for today, no other person than His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Let is work with him and make Nigeria great,” the former first lady said.
