HID’s death forced me out of my ‘hiding place’ – Jonathan

Former President of Nigeria ,Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and his wife has paid a condolence visit to The Awolowo Family, while speaking to newsmen he actually disclosed that 'death has forced him and his wife out of their hiding place'. Apparently he had plans to stay on full hibernation mode for at least a year.

His words,

  “We, just like the immediate children, and indeed this country as a whole, have missed her. Within this period, myself and my wife have been hiding; we don’t even go out. We thought we’ll be hiding for at least 12  months.

“But in this particular case, we cannot hide. So, we have come for the condolence and to encourage our brothers and sisters that we are together. God brought her for all of us. She just had to be the direct mother of few but she was a mother to all. We shall mourn more than even the direct children would.”

He further described her as a rare mother, whose milk of human kindness, milk of encouragement and milk of advice Nigerians still need.
 

He said: “Me and my wife are not mourning because mama has passed on. For me, we believe that it’s a rare privilege to add extra 29 years to the biblical three scores and 10; it’s not easy.

“Ordinarily, we wouldn’t have been mourning but mama was a rare mother. She was a woman of virtue described in the Bible and she was a mother to all of us.

“A mother that her milk of kindness we still need, her milk of encouragement we still need, her milk of advice we still need and today she’s no more with us.”

 Meanwhile, the Awolowo family has disclosed that their late matriarch would be buried November 25, 2015, the day she would have been 100 years.
