[Video] My Husband And His Team Have Done Very Well -- Do You Agree With Patience Jonathan?

The First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, has attributed the outstanding performance of the Federal Government in various sectors of the economy to the input of women in the cabinet. Mrs Jonathan said this in a short remark at a dinner organised for women in commemoration of this year's Democracy Day in Abuja. She commended them for making Nigerian women proud in the mid-term report released on Thursday by the Presidency on the first half of the administration's four-year tenure.

"Two days ago, the President read his mid-term report to Nigerians. He and his team have done very well. Women are the powerful people in that cabinet."

She singled out the Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, for her efforts to reposition the nation's economy and the Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah, for the facelift in several of the nation's airports.
