WE MADE DAME JONATHAN A PERM' SECRETARY BECAUSE SHE WAS A BAYELSA STATE TEACHER



President Goodluck Jonathan and Dame Patience Jonathan

Wife to Nigeria's president Mrs Jonathan and 17 others were appointed Permanent Secretaries in bayelsa state's civil service by the governor of Bayelsa State, Governor Seriake Dickson. 

The broadcast was aired live on the state radio station yesterday evening Wednesday July 11th 2012.

Explaining the reason for her appointment, the senior special assistant to Bayelsa state governor on media affairs, Mr. Daniel Iworiso-Markson, said:

"The First Lady was a teacher in the state’s civil service and has been on leave of absence since 1999 to join her  husband in his political service; first as a deputy governor, governor, vice president, then president. If not for the leave of absence, according to him, Mrs Jonathan would have risen to the status of a permanent secretary by now."


Imagine, Mrs Dame Patience Jonathan a teacher?
