A sum of N7 billion (naira) of Nigeria's tax payers funds was wasted on the burial of the foster mother of Nigeria's first lady, Patience Jonathan in her hometown of Okrika in Rivers State over the weekend.

the events which kicked off on Thursday saw the attendance of the President , Vice President, several state governors and ministers. Saharareporters sources said funds for the burial were taken from several ministries including the FCT, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, the ministry of Education, Delta State, Bayelsa state and the ministry of defence.

Ironically, the first lady's mother died in a stretch of raod abandoned by the Jonathan's regime in the Niger Delta region.

And somebody said this headless chicken cares about ASUU strike and d students.
And not to even talk about those nigerian passengers(over 150) onboard dat aircraft who had to hover the airspace of PH for 45mins-even as symptomatically unsafe as our airspace is, they put their lives on the line simply because some "poverty-bringers'' decided to honour burial event of one faceless old woman. Imagine this 7billion wasted here plus plane crash(GOD forbid)..it wld have been one burial, but too many 'losses'.
Jonathan, God de watch u!

How much was spent. For tinubu's mother's own .and fashola's fathers own or is it when it come to GeJ fake figures would be thrown about on the pages of newspaper.at least primary schools and markets were not shotdown unlike when tinubus daugther was crowned iya oloja. Sahara reporters got all the invoices and receipt to calculate how much was spent or they hired an auditor that audited the amount used for the burial or better still they were there monitoring and calculating how much was spent because they are part of PEJ's family.

roach, it shld have 'cropped' on ur 'holow-cephalo' that it is not impossible to use such amounts for any event of that magnitude. If it were to b another leader frm d opposition that was tagged with such waste, i'm sure it wont take u seconds to find a place in ur heart to harbour this. U jst metioned fashola's case, how much muslims wan spend for burial? Infact, d money used to buy casket for mama fynface oba is more than what fashola used for his father's burial. And who told u pa fashola was poor? U anteaters can never stop behaving the usual way. U dnt bliv stella's case frm SR, u dnt beliv anything SR says about ur paymaster, gej, but u believed whatever they said about yaradua? Fawking bigot!

No matter what you say about General Abacha's corruption, the fact is that to any unbiased Nigerian, his wife, Mrs. Maryam Abacha, was the only First Lady ever that deployed her status to seek to ameliorate the sufferings of Nigerian women and children. She raised funds to build the HOSPITAL FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN at Abuja that the shameless Aremu converted to NATIONAL HOSPITAL ABUJA. That hospital's name ought to be changed to MARYAM ABACHA WOMEN'S HOSPITAL.

The most selfish, wicked and greedy First Lady is MRS. PATIENCE JONATHAN. That N7 BILLION could be deployed to establish and fund at least 10 maternity hospitals in Okrika and Rivers State.

where is that guy called NAPTU that says that saharareporters are objective in theie reporting of news?

When tinubu did his 60th birthday that billions were spent by all south west governors, senators, HOR, HOA, local government chairmen and councilors, saharareporters did not give us a photo gallery like this to show us the stink of this APC guys .

When tinubu did his mother's burial that billions were spent by all south west governors, senators, HOR, HOA, local government chairmen and councilors, saharareporters did not give us a photo gallery like this to show us the stink of this APC guys .

When fashola did his fathers burial we didn't see the photo gallery from saharareporters. When fashola did his birthday and was using MAN-U cake, we didn't see the photo galleries ooooo.

And one naptu of a guy will go around bringing out a video were saharareporters is interviewing GEJ when he is coming out from a UN meeting as a proof that they are objective.

Abi NAPTU, are you sowore of saharareporters on nairaland?

BIGOTZ EVERYWERE ON NAIRALAND! SMH!

They can't help themselves. I hope someday they would be like, "well it's nothing, Charles' wife too is an adulterer, so I see nothing wrong in my wife doing it".

And I keep wondering why they compare a state govt to the fed govt. Whatever is done in lagos state concerns lagosians. Whatever is done by GEJ and his band of cartoon characters concerns us all.

u sunken toad failed to understand this when u mentioned fashola and others who have spent huge on burials to justify that of ur gej in ur first post on this thread. u believed what SR said that's why u maid made that weakly-jointed comparison. u dont only think through ur lower opening, but u see with ur legs.
your argument is symptomatic of a numskull who's 'lost in high weeds' like ur pay master, gej. you people turn every thread on on it's head if does not favor u gej. karl max, looking in askance, u lack 'maxism'.

again , ur empty cephalo has failed u. if u think that because stella came with a prepared note to read out to the committee has doused the tension, then u must be high on some sour gruel. she passed the blame down to NCAA even though as it appeared that she was the one the agency threw everything at. i'm sure u did not see where they asked her how she spent over 600 million as against 240 million approved by the NASS? like i said, u don't only think through ur lower opening , but u see with your legs.

jst my point. simply because obj cud not get it right with the power sector, does not mean things should be left the way they are; and that's why we have gej trynna put the house in order by taking some bold step by privatizing the power sector. what most nigerians think is that, everybody should maintain status quo even if it means doing what's wrong...wtf?

Really?, most critics here are hypocritic and ignorant, first off most burial ceremonies in south south always goes with fanfare as u can see from the pic wether rich or poor, it's their tradition, again it will be insensitive of GEJ not to attend that burial ceremony to pay his last respect because of criticism, lastly being the President of Nigeria many heads of government institutions are obliged to show their support and condolence, and of course the Nigerian traditional saying that if u don't attend others burial who will attend yours?.

Don't be surprise GEJ and PEJ associates or friends are responsible for the cost of the burial, beside the President and his wife can definitely afford the cost without state support, I am quite certain the logistics of most of the dignitaries are at personal cost except GEJ, Sambo, Mark and state governors who voluntarily attended, so quit the propaganda.
