Patience Jonathan In Fresh Trouble

patience-jonathanDame Patience Faka Jonathan, wife of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan is in big trouble as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested drivers and house boys who were used to open bank accounts for her. 15 million dollars was found in the accounts.

Our sources at EFCC revealed that…“We were investigating the Special Adviser to former President Jonathan on Domestic Affairs, Waripamowei Dudafa when we stumbled on those four companies’ domiciliary accounts opened at Skye Bank with a balance of about $15m. On further investigation, we were able to identify the directors of the companies. When we detained the directors, we found out that they were Dudafa’s domestic servants. One of them was a houseboy while another one was a driver. Their photographs were used in opening the accounts and their signatures were forged.”

“We found out that these domestic servants were completely innocent because they had no access to the accounts. We have since released them. The sole signatory to the accounts was Patience Jonathan and she was issued with a special card, which is accepted worldwide. She has a separate account, which was opened in her name and has a balance of $5m.”

Be that as it may, Dame Patience Jonathan has sued Skye Bank for freezing her bank accounts and giving the EFCC vital information about her finances. She equally wants the court to order Skye Bank to pay her damages in the sum of N200m for what she termed a violation of her right to own personal properties under Section 44 of the 1999 Constitution.
