This evening, I led a high powered delegation of Bayelsa West, leaders, elders, Youth leaders, Women leaders and friends across the State to visit the home of our leader and Father, the Former President of Nigeria, His Excellency, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, GCFR to traditionally condole him over the loss of his Sister, Madam Obebhatein Jonathan, fondly called Miss.
Miss was a very nice Aunty of mine and others. As I stated, he is our father and our leader and we are part of his household any day and for good or bad he will have me and all of us by his side. We have tried severally to plan this visit but because of his tight schedules it wasn’t possible till now. Today we felt we should condole him the traditional way.
We pray God to give him the fortitude to bear the loss. I thanked him and others for managing our mother fondly called Mama the Mama. I prayed God to grant her and the entire family the fortitude to bear the loss.
I thereafter nominated two persons from Bayelsa West to be part of the burial planning committee. We will also attend all the programmes of the burial.
I pray God to grant her soul eternal rest.
