Patience Jonathan has been scheduled to return to the country today (Thursday) after about six of undergoing treatment abroad, Saharareporters, reported.
The report said a presidential jet was
scheduled to fly out of Abuja on Wednesday night to bring back
President Goodluck Jonathan’s wife home.
Saharareporters quoted
presidency sources on Wednesday as saying that the wife of the
President would return to the country early today barring any
unexpected developments,.
According to the report, Patience was
flown overseas nearly six weeks ago after developing complications from
a cosmetic procedure she had undertaken in Dubai.
It further said that upon returning to
Nigeria from Dubai, the President’s wife was allegedly flown to
Germany in an air ambulance following an emergency which was allegedly
diagnosed her with “food poisoning”.
SaharaReporters said its investiigation revealed
that her condition was more complicated and precarious. Among others,
in the early stages she lost her power of speech for four days.
Her spokesman, Ayo Osinlu, had earlier
told journalists that the President’s wife was only resting abroad after
the stress of hosting African First Ladies recently.
Jonathan on Saturday visited his wife in Germany in company with two of their children.
The visit was aired on the Nigerian Television Authority on Sunday evening.
In the short footage, Patience was seen
to be in high spirit as she took photographs with the children as well
as her husband and members of his delegation.
Efforts by The PUNCH to speak with Osinlu on Wednesday did not yield result as he did not pick calls made to his mobile telephone line.
