First Lady of Nigeria Dame Patience Jonathan is flying back
to Nigeria from Geneva following the tragic death of her mother in a car crash
on Minday in Port Harcourt.
Credible sources are reporting that this morning Mrs.
Jonathan and her entourage who were in Geneva on official assignment, are on
their way back to the country following the orders given by the distraught
woman who could not attend to scheduled engagements.
The news of the death of the woman popularly known as her
foster mother, Mrs. Iwarioba (Sisi), was said to have been broken to her in
Geneva by President Goodluck Jonathan through the telephone yesterday
Though it was not clear if some of her close friends would
be waiting to console with her at the Presidential Wing of the Abuja Airport,
but our correspondent gathered that one of her aides had called to inform The
Presidency that the Presidential jet that coverage the entourage to Geneva is
on its way back to Abuja, Mrs. Iwarioba was reported to have died yesterday in
a road crash at Elele in Rivers State.
She was on her way to neighbouring Bayelsa State. Her body
was deposited at the Kpaima Mortuary on Elechi Beach, Mile One, Diobu, Port
Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, around 6 pm, by the self-acclaimed
“Speaker” of Rivers House of Assembly, Evans Bipi, accompanied by many
policemen.
