Less than three days before the presidential election holds across Nigeria, the wife of Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan, Patience Jonathan, has misfired at a public function.
Speaking at a presidential rally organised by the ruling PDP in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on Wednesday, the First Lady goofed by stating that those who jailed ‘Adelabu’ would also jail the people of Oyo State, if they voted for the APC.
PM NEWS recalls that Adegoke Adelabu, with the nickname, ‘Penkelemis: Peculiar Mess, was a colourful politician in Ibadan in the 50s before he died in March 1958.
It was reported that the political leader Mrs Jonathan had in mind was Alhaji Busari Adelakun, a former commissioner in the state under Chief Bola Ige, between 1979 and 1982.

It was gathered that Adelakun, a political toughie, later abandoned Ige’s Unity Party of Nigeria and joined the Federally ruling National Party of Nigeria.
Following the coup of 31 December 1983, he was arrested by the coupists. He died at the University College Hospital, after a protracted illness.
But speaking in Ibadan, Mrs Jonathan said that the APC and its presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari plan to jail many people, including herself if they win the 2015 election.
