Patience Jonathan humiliated at Port Harcourt Airport

Denied access to VIP lounge

Barely  two months after the exit of her husband from  office, former First Lady and wife of immediate past president, Dame Patience Jonathan has allegedly  suffered ignominy and molestation at the hands of security  operatives and  aviation  officials at the Port Harcourt International airport.
Dame Jonathan,  who was on her way to the burial of her late Chief Security Officer (CSO), Tamuno Jacob Igbomie, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, was on Wednesday prevented from entering the VIP Lounge of the airport, a privilege she had enjoyed in the last 16 years......

The  former First Lady arrived Port Harcourt International Airport and made for the VIP lounge as had been the norm and should still be accorded her given her status in the society. However, she was practically locked out and prevented from accessing the lounge.
An eye witness, who narrated the incident, said that efforts by the former president’s wife and  her personal aides  to pacify the security agents at the airport to allow the long known protocol etiquette stand were rebuffed as they stood their ground, insisting that they were acting on orders from Abuja,
New Telegraph further learnt that on  her  return from the burial, the same  drama played out,  prompting observers to ask if the presidency could  give such a directive against the personality and family of the immediate past president.
The deceased  former CSO to  Patience Jonathan was allegedly shot dead by unknown assailants  about three weeks ago.
Igbomie’s corpse was found in his Honda Accord car along Airport Road, Abuja with all his phones, wallet and other personal effects  in the car untouched.
