Patience Jonathan Secretly Flown To German Hospital Again

If you're wondering why Mama Peace, the wife of President Goodluck Jonathan has not been seen in public in recent days, then here is what is going on. Two reliable sources in Abuja have told Sahara Reporters that the First Lady was secretly flown out to a German hospital for treatment again.
A source said that Patience Jonathan was secretly moved out of Abuja almost a week ago. "She was flown out about a week ago," the source at the Presidential Villa told our correspondent. He added that he can''t say if she is responding to treatment at the moment.


"She has not been in good health for a while now."
One source disclosed that she had kept a low profile for weeks before her evacuation to the German hospital.
It would be recalled that her spokesman had claimed last year that the President's wife was not sick at all but had traveled abroad to rest after hosting a meeting of African First Ladies. However, Mrs. Jonathan herself later confessed that she had been gravely sick, crediting God with rescuing her from a comatose state.


A source in Abuja wondered why a First Lady's medical trip to Germany is shrouded in secrecy. "Nigerians are paying for her treatment and deserve the courtesy of being informed about her movement," he said.
The political source added that Patience Jonathan's frequent trips abroad is a clear indication of the failure of her husband's administration to improve on Nigerian hospitals after over five years as president.
