Sometimes, the light that an individual gives to the world does not appear until that individual is out of the limelight. It is starting to look like the former First Lady of Nigeria, Dame Patience Jonathan, has much of this light in store. Bearing in mind some of her latest moves, it is clear that the former Nigeria Mama has regained her groove.

Dame Patience will always be remembered as one of the most forthright and sensitive First Ladies of Nigeria. Supporting her similarly compassionate husband, former President Goodluck Jonathan, Dame Patience manifested a different type of leadership conscience. It is currently looking as if she is not out of the game yet.

In recent days, Dame Patience has been up and about such that there are speculations that she has returned to the limelight. A good pointer to this assertion is her recent visits to top dignitaries in the country, including the current First Lady and a governor in the South-east.

Dame Patience’s visit to First Lady Remi Tinubu made the news. The reports displayed a gentle-looking Patience beside a happy-looking Remi. Patience declared her support for the present administration, committing the fortune of Nigerian women to Senator Remi and asking all and sundry to support Remi’s husband, President Bola Tinubu.

Patience also visited Abia State and waxed lyrical at the accomplishments of the governor, Alex Otti. According to her, Abia is doing well under Otti and is gradually transforming into a state of dreams. Bearing in mind that Dame Patience traces her maternal origin to Abia, her concern for the citizens of the state is justified.

These visitations and the waves caused by them are the foremost proof that Dame Patience is back. Her motherly disposition and emotive tendencies are likely going to sweep across the nation in the coming days.
