EX Nigerian 1st Lady Patience Jonathan Put 15 People In Jail In 2019 For Missing Jewelry

EX Nigeria's First Lady Patience Jonathan locked up 15 of her domestic staff   in Bayelsa State’s Okaka Correctional Centre since 2019 over her Jewelry that got missing and these people are still in detention since then without a court conviction, as their trial has been repeatedly stalled on her orders....


The names of the detained workers include Vincent Olabiyi, Ebuka Cosmos, John Dashe, Tamunokuro Abaku, Saabi Liman, Emmanuel Aginwa, Erema Deborah, Williams Alami, Precious Kingsley, Tamunosiki Waribobo, Salomi Reginald, Sunday Boma, Oba Golden, and Vivian.

Sources familiar with the case raised the alarm, calling for urgent intervention to ensure justice for the detained workers.
“Since 2019, former First Lady Patience Jonathan has locked up about 16 of her domestic staff in Okaka Prison for allegedly stealing her jewellery, without first allowing a competent court of law to try them and sentence them.

Some years ago, an organisation tech4justice was able to provide legal services for them, which they have been doing ever since. But since the current Chief Judge came on board, she has been deliberately dragging the case on Patience Jonathan’s instructions. She is a stooge of the former First Lady,” one of the sources said.

Also, a relative of one of the detained domestic workers, speaking to SaharaReporters, stated
"They are at Okaka Prison in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State. They are 15 in number and have been in prison since 2019. They were domestic workers for the former First Lady, Patience Jonathan.

In 2019, there was a case of breaking and entering in one of her apartments in Otuoke, and she decided to arrest all her workers even though they were not working in that apartment at the time.

Since then, there has been no evidence to prove the case in court, and the case is not proceeding. They keep saying they are waiting for witnesses to come forward until today
They are being charged with armed robbery, malicious damage, attempted murder, stealing, and so on. But there is no evidence! They are even going to court this morning (Thursday)" the source said.

  2. Justice delayed sometimes can be justice denial. How can these people be in jail without conviction since 2019. May God help the common man in this country.

    1. Which maybe? When she kidnapped the staff of the Chibok school, brought them to Abuja, paraded them before the press mentioning God and crying them returned them to be held without any legal backing, was the commander and chief not aware?

      Imagine keeping expensive jewelry exposed at home with this level of exposure of not proper education. What are grounded safes and CCTV for?

      This is a case of ole gbe, ole GBA. Can she confidently account for the source of funds for the jewelry, the hotels, the fat accounts and other goodies she and her cronies amazed through her being the domestic appendage of the guy heading government at the time?

      She should cut her losses.

  5. Work with these politicians at your own peril. I know someone whose dad, a steward was jailed since last year over a missing wristwatch even though it was confirmed that he was not in the house on the day the watch went missing. He worked with a very top politician.

  16. Release them! Six years should count as time served for something they were not even charged with a crime for. Wickedness of the highest order. A good lawyer should take on their case pro bono and launch a class action lawsuit against that woman for unlawfully detaining these ppl for so long. Height of wickedness. May the same be done to she and hers.
