Nigeria’s First Lady, Patience Jonathan has accused All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari of plotting to build more prisons if elected into office.

Mrs Jonathan also stated that a vote for Buhari would be a vote for prison.

The First Lady made the comments on Tuesday, March 24, during a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rally in Akure, Ondo State.

“If you vote Buhari, you vote for prison. When the PDP is busy building schools, they are busy thinking of building jails. We will not allow our children to be put in jail, God forbid. We pray for oneness, we pray for unity, we pray for peace,” Mrs Jonathan said.

“He was a former Head of State, he did not build Almajiri schools. It was Goodluck Jonathan that built the schools. Ask him what he did for women when he was Head of State. It was Goodluck Jonathan that remembered women,” she added.

Mrs Jonathan also ridiculed the APC’s “change” mantra which she had earlier said was meant for bus conductors.

“They said we should change, we can only move from bad to better, not from better to bad. Jonathan has done well and will do even better if returned. They have nothing to show,” she said.

Mrs Jonathan also earlier said that Buhari is brain-dead and should leave governance to the younger generations.
