Former First lady, Dame Patience Jonathan. has stated that she wouldn’t want to return to the presidential villa she and her husband, Goodluck Jonathan, occupied for eight years because “the stress of Nigeria is too much.”

While at a public function on Friday, June 28, Mrs Jonathan said;

“If you call me now for villa, I wouldn’t go there. I won’t. Don’t you see how young I am? The stress is so much. The stress of Nigeria is so much. If God manages to bring you out of it, you should glorify God and thank for the lord’s doing because it is marvellous in his eyes. He has taken you there once, why do you want to go there again? Me I won’t go oo!!!” she said

The Jonathans exited the presidential villa in 2015 after Buhari won the elections and was sworn into office.

The Sokoto State High Court on Wednesday issues an order restraining Governor Ahmed Aliyu from sacking two out 15 traditional rulers already removed by the government.

This came as the dethronement of traditional rulers continue to generate controversies in Sokoto

The orders were sought separately by Alhaji Buhari Dahiru Tambuwal and Alhaji Abubakar Kassim, the District Heads of Tambuwal and Kebbe respectively.

They were among the 15 traditional rulers earlier removed by the Sokoto State government, on the allegation of insurbodination and aiding insecurity in the state.

The presiding judge, Justice Kabiru Ibrahim Ahmed, however ordered the Governor of Sokoto State, his Attorney General and the
Sokoto Sultanate Council to revert to status quo, pending the determination of the suite filed before him by the complainants, who were represented by Prof Ibrahim Abdullahi SAN.

Justice Ahmed through two orders directed the defendants, their agents servants, privies or assigns or any person acting on their behalves to “maintain status quo and stay all actions and further actions in connection with all matters dealing with and or appertaining to the removal and or dethronement of Districts Heads in Sokoto State”, particularly those of Kebbe and Tambuwal, pending the hearing and determination of the motion for interlocutory injunction duly filed by the two before the court.
