News: Drama as Patience Jonathan prevents Buhari's wife from using Edo Stadium

Patience Jonathan, wife of the president has got the nod to
use Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium by the Edo State
Government despite applying for the stadium after Aisha
Buahri, wife of the All Progressives Congress (APC)
presidential candidate did same.
For avoidance of trouble, Governor Adams Oshiomhole of
Edo pleaded with Mrs Buhari to allow Patience Jonathan
use the stadium in a bid to allow peace reign in the state.
In a statement signed by Louis Odion, Commissioner of
Information and Orientation, he said: “The mix-up in the use
of the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on Saturday, March 14,
2015 was occasioned by the laxity on the part of the
officials of the Ministry of Sports who, without reference to
their supervisors, proceeded to collect money and issue
receipt only yesterday (Tuesday) to the PDP for use of the
stadium knowing full well that the APC had, last week,
applied for and got approval for use of same facility same
day.
“In fact, jingles were already running on local television and
radio stations announcing that the wife of APC’s
presidential candidate, Hajia Aisha Buhari, would be in
Benin on Saturday, March 14, 2015 to deliver the message
of change to Edo women.
“For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state that being the
owner of the said facility, Edo State Government reserves
the right to insist that the party that got approval first be
allowed use of the stadium. In the circumstance, we
imagine the idle denizens of Edo PDP must by now be
salivating at the prospects of having an opportunity to
unleash mayhem on peace-loving people of Edo State with
the excuse that money was collected from them.
“But as civilized people, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has
directed that Mrs. Patience Jonathan, the First Lady, be
granted use of the stadium on Saturday, while Hajia Aisha
Buhari, wife of the APC presidential candidate will have her
turn on another day,” the statement read. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
