HID’s death forced my wife andI out of hidding, says Jonathan

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has
disclosed that he opted to remain out of
public glare since leaving office last May
29 but was forced along with the wife to
come out due to death of Mama HID
Awolowo.
Jonathan made this known in Ikenne home
of the Awolowos after he led a delegation
to the family over the death of HID
Awolowo.
“Within this period, myself and my wife
have been hiding; we don’t even go out.
We thought we’ll be hiding for at least
twelve months. But in this particular case,
we cannot hide. So, we’ve come for the
condolence and to encourage our brothers
and sisters that we are together.”
The ex – President was accompanied to
Ikenne by his wife, Patience Jonathan, the
former chairman of Federal Road
Maintenance Agency, FERMA, Jide Adeniji,
former Leader, House of Representatives,
Hon. Mulikat Adeola, former governor of
Ogun state, Gbenga Daniel and Mrs. Kuku
from Bayelsa state.
According to Jonathan, Mama’s death was
so powerful that it shook both him and his
wife out of hiding.
