The governor of Lagos state, Babatunde Fashola has asked President Goodluck Jonathan to stop his wife, Patience Jonathan, making inciting statements capable of causing violence across the country.
Fashola said this on Tuesday evening, while receiving the chairman of the National Human Rights Commission, Prof Chidi Odinkalu at the State House, Marina, Lagos.
The governor advised Jonathan to publicly dissociate himself from his wife’s hate speeches and those made by his supporters and aides, saying this will show he is not in support of them.
In recent times, Patience has been making hate speeches directed at the opposition, the All Progressives Congress (APC). She had described Muhammadu Buhari as “brain dead”, and also asked her supporters to stone anyone who mentions change to them.
“He must publicly dissociate himself from his wife’s inciting comments, he must. He must disown them and his leadership will be defined by whether he does it himself or ask his aides to go and say it. When all is said and done, this election will define his tenure for many reasons,” Fashola stated.
Common sense is indeed not common.

like seriously, am just airing my own personal opinion, and should incase anybody here doesn't like it. that person should say his own. Have APC forgotten so soon that they started the hate speech and name calling, if I can still remember GEJ was described as Bad luck, clueless. naive, novice and the worst thing that ever happened to Nigeria. so I think APC should get use of those kind of speech and stop acting as if they are innocent. that does not mean that the first lady was right to describe another fellow as brain dead. now PDP and APC loyalist in the house go on and have my head.
My brother u have say it all

former ivorian first lady will be serving a 20 years in prison, that will be a big lesson as well as a warning to patience, to watch her mouth or put it where it belongs

The same APC that said they will make Nigeria ungovernable, the same APC that said they will form a paralel government, the same APC is giving advice on how to watch words. Wonders shall never end.
