"HILARY CLINTON HAS INSPIRE ME TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT"~DAME PATIENCE JONATHAN

I saw this post on Facebook and couldn't help but read and share and re-post.
Enjoy our Favourite Naija telemundo!

Far removed from the opulence of Aso Rock, Dame Patience Jonathan, former First Lady of Nigeria, has been off the radar, leading a rather lowkey life by her standards in Otueke, Bayelsa.
The Wife of former president Goodluck Jonathan, popularly called Mama Peace, has curiously not joined her husband as he tours the world receiving awards. We caught up with her at the family home in Bayelsa where we discussed Life outside the spotlight, Politics and moves for the future.

FNN: Your exelle....
PEJ: No, just call me mama Peace.
FNN: Mama Peace, how have you managed to stay away from the news for this long?
PEJ: My brother, its God. I am just happy to be alive, me and my husband and children.
FNN: so what has Mama Peace been up to?
PEJ: I have been going classes to get my Ph.D. I cannot allow only Ebele to be answering Doctor in the house *laughter ensues*
FNN: do you miss life in Aso Rock?
PEJ: I cannot tell you lie, I miss it. But to God be the Glory, in 2019 I will be back there
FNN: Wow! Does President Goodluck intend to run again?
PEJ: Noo, not Ebele. Me
FNN: Wow Wow Wow
PEJ: yes O my brother. I have been looking Tele and seeing what Hilary is doing in America. If she can contest, I will contest. Man have been ruling our country since 1960, but look at us. Suffer suffer everywhere.
FNN: So you fancy your chances of becoming president? Do you think you have the CV?
PEJ: Did Obasanjo have CV?
FNN: Valid point.
PEJ: look, this our country have mature to have a Woman President. Hilary that is contesting, does she have two head? The woman in Liberia does she have 2 head?
FNN: But Mama Peace, do you think you have the requisite political clout?
PEJ: I have requisite, I have deposit. Go and look at Wike in Port Harcourt. I will not say more than that. Those wey know know *laughter*
FNN: Well it's been a pleasure interviewing you Ma. Best of luck in your future endeavors.
PEJ: Thank you my brother. Greet your family for me.

For My G.Ma - Felicia

I never knew I would miss her this much. People never understood why I love Christmas. I didn’t quite get it too – apart   from the bursting joy of the birth of Christ, the melodious songs and beautiful decorations; there was more to the super hyper and lovey-dovey feeling I always have this season. So, I was scrolling through my phone gallery and saw the last photo I had with my G.Ma. Oh by the way, Christmas was her birth and death day. I’m writing this because of her. Just to share a bit of her awesomeness with you. That woman was a bad-ass! Reminiscing on my childhood memories with her, I realized she was the reason I love Christmas. I usually spent my Christmas and New-Year holidays with her as a child. She would take me to her church and ask the priest to allow me join other children in the Christmas carol rehearsals and performances. She would take me to the salon and have my hair done and accessorized. I hated making my hair, it was just too stressf...

Story

In this journey called life, where moments and seasons appear like stories that would become history and re-cycled in the future.  This story in which all must play a part, big or small, voluntarily or forcefully; somehow you are in the loop - it is the circle of life.  This story of life, some of us would write it; some would tell it; some would invent it; some would create it; some would act it; some would direct its sequence; some would learn and build from it; some would fight for it; some would die for it; some others would passively watch it.  In the end, you alone will choose what narrative you want your scene in the story of life to look like. Remember you are in the story, no one said you couldn’t be the story! In this journey called life, where moments and seasons appear like stories that would become history and re-cycled in the future. This story in which all must play a part, big or small, voluntarily or forcefully; somehow you are in the loop - it is the...

Slow me down...

Here is my typical day: Wake up, say a word of prayer -sometimes in my heart while I brush my teeth and take a quick cold bathe; Jump into my clothes, do some little amateur work of art on my face (of which by the way comes out 'not too good' especially when there's no power and I had to use a torch!); grab my bag and shoes and any extra luggage and out I go.
