Nigerian FirstLady Patience Jonathan Travels To Germany For Medical Vacation.

If the information i got concerning the first Lady on a medical trip Germany is true then its really funny ,because the government  is trying hard to ban medical trips abroad for Nigerians ,and now one of her most highly placed citizen is going abroad for medical treatment.If they knew there are not enough facilities why cant they provide it our hospitals with good facilities what did the do to all the hundreds of millions and billions of promises to revive the health sector
.Anyway i also heard she traveled over the weekend that the First Lady Patience Jonathan as information filtered said she has gone on a foreign medial trip, though her office said she only went abroad to take a rest.

But as usual news leaked that Mrs. Jonathan left Abuja a week ago to a German hospital to treat an undisclosed condition.

The First Lady, whose local and foreign trips normally enjoy wide coverage in state-run media, travelled out on Monday with no official announcement of where she was headed.

But her absence at public events has been conspicuous.

During the past week, Mrs. Jonathan, 55, has not been seen at any public function.

She has not accompanied President Jonathan on his trip to Addis Ababa for the funeral yesterday of the late Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi.

Mrs. Jonathan was not with her husband in Anambra State on Thursday where he launched the Orient Petroleum facility.

Also, she did not join the president on his two-day trip to Senegal on August 22. The last foreign trip the First Lady embarked on with the President was to Trinidad and Tobago at the beginning of last month, few days after she hosted the African First Ladies Summit in Abuja.

A source told Daily Trust at the weekend that Mrs. Jonathan has gone to a hospital called Horst Schmidt Klinik in Wiesbaden, Germany, but did not say what condition she went there to treat.

Horst Schmidt Klinik is where the late President Yar’Adua was once hospitalised for kidney-related ailments.

But the office of the First Lady said last night that Mrs. Jonathan’s foreign trip was “to take time off to rest” and not for medical purposes.

First Lady’s spokesman Ayo Osinlu confirmed that Mrs. Jonathan has travelled abroad since last week but that she was only away to take a “moment’s rest” given that she has not taken a rest since President Jonathan’s election last year.

Osinlu told Daily Trust by telephone that after the African First Ladies Summit which she hosted late July, Mrs. Jonathan decided she should take some time off to rest.

“If you look at her itinerary in August, you will be wondering how she was able to accomplish that,” Osinlu said.

Asked when the First Lady is expected to return to Nigeria, Osinlu said, “In the course of this week she will be back home. But remember, it all depends on her plans.”

He added that she may decide to extend her stay abroad.

I heard also that she had food poisoning ,they said ,they said ,ohh not from my mouth,i heard it too.

''Mummy Patience get well so oh,''am also on a medical trip somewhere close to you too.
