Patience Jonathan, wife of ex-president Goodluck
Jonathan, has urged the house of representatives to call the
security agencies “harassing her” to order.
Gogo Bright, a lawmaker from Rivers state, presented the
petition to the house on Thursday.
Bright said as a result of the sacrifices made by her husband
for the country, the house should wade into the matter and call the
security agencies to order.
The lawmaker said no former first lady has been harassed like
this before.
“No former first lady has been harassed like this before,”
Bright said.
“But for the sacrifices that her husband has made for the
country, the house should consider and call the security agencies
to order.”
The petition comes a day after an ad hoc committee of the house
invited her husband to explain his role in the contentious Malabu
oil deal.
On December 7, 2016, the house had received a similar complaint
from the former first lady.
