First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan is reportedly sick again and travelled to Spain and Germany in search of treatment. According to SaharaReporters, the First Lady was also contemplating receiving medical treatment from a United States (US) hospital.
Mrs. Jonathan’s renewed health woes have allegedly accounted for her absence from several official events in Abuja and her home state of Bayelsa State over the last few days.
A few days ago, Mrs. Jonathan allegedly made a quiet exit from Abuja en route to France where she was to receive some unspecified award.
However, a source within the presidency told SaharaReporters that Mrs. Jonathan’s trip to France was a ploy to enable her to shop for new doctors in Europe for her deteriorating health.
The online medium said a source disclosed to it that Mrs. Jonathan left France for Spain and was considering being moved to a US hospital today.
The outfit claimed that Mr. Ayo Osinlu, the first lady’s spokesman, said Mrs. Jonathan was in Europe to cater for an ailing elderly woman who helped to raise her but failed to disclose the specific European country where Mrs. Jonathan’s foster mother was hospitalised.
At a church service in Aso Villa Chapel, President Jonathan led the opening prayer of the service which was conducted by his chaplain, Ven. Obioma Onwuzurumba.
He prayed for peace in the country and all parts of the world and after the event, he proceeded to the airport for Bayelsa State.
LEADERSHIP Sunday gathered that the absence of Dame Patience was visibly felt in Bayelsa where her husband left Abuja for on Friday.
Unlike the usual visit to his state in which he is always accompanied by his wife, Jonathan was alone throughout his stay in his home state before he proceeded to Lagos yesterday.
During Mrs. Jonathan’s first extended medical sojourn in Germany, Mr. Osinlu had said that the First Lady was vacationing abroad after what he described as a series of gruelling official functions, including the hosting of a conference of African first ladies.
Mrs. Jonathan was absent at a Friday church service organised at the presidential villa y as part of Easter celebrations.
She was also missing at another key event where her Africa First Ladies Peace Mission donated relief material to the war-torn country of Mali.
Her aide allegedly disclosed that a minister of state for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Ms. Jumoke Akinjide, represented Mrs. Jonathan at the event.
At the church service in the presidential villa, President Jonathan was flanked by his elderly mother, Eunice Jonathan, Petroleum Minister Diezani Alison-Madueke and Ndudi Elumelu, a member of the House of Representatives.
One of the last times Mrs. Jonathan was seen in public was on her return from an official visit to Cote d’Ivoire on March 2, 2013.
She later made a brief visit to Lagos where she attended a dinner organised for Nollywood stars.
