Former first lady, Patience Jonathan was recently embarrassed at the Port Harcourt International Airport, New Telegraph reports.
Patience Jonathan was allegedly humiliated by security operatives
and aviation officials at the airport, while on her way to the burial of
her late Chief Security Officer (CSO), Tamuno Jacob Igbomie, a Deputy
Superintendent of Police.
According to the report, the incident occurred on Wednesday, July
22,when Mrs Jonathan was denied access into the VIP lounge of the
airport.
When Jonathan arrived the airport, she was said to have headed to the
VIP lounge, which was her normal procedure when flying, however, she
was supposedly prevented from entering the lounge.
In spite of entreaties by her personal aides to the security agents
at the airport to allow Jonathan enter the lounge, they stuck to their
guns and responded that they were acting on orders from Abuja.
The report further added that the same scenario ensued upon her return from the burial.
