Cute Abiola begs Patience Jonathan over past mockery in the past

Cute Abiola, a Nigerian skit maker, went on social media to apologise to former First Lady Patience Jonathan over past mockery when she spoke about insecurity and kidnappings in Nigeria.

Taking to his Instagram page, the comedian shared a photo of the former First Lady, remembering how she often showed concern during her time in office whenever there were reports of kidnapping and violence.

Back then, some Nigerians on social media often mocked her emotional reactions.

He pointed out that now, with insecurity still affecting parts of the country, many people see her past reactions differently. They now understand her responses as genuine concern for victims and their families, not as a sign of weakness.

He said he was sorry that she had been ridiculed before and thanked her for having the courage to speak up at the time.

He wrote: “MUMMY! I just want to say we are sorry. Years ago, when you cried on national television over the pain, bloodshed, and kidnapping of innocent children,

“You felt the pain of the victims and their families. You spoke with emotion because you understood the gravity of what was happening to our nation. Today, as kidnapping and insecurity continue to affect innocent Nigerians, many now realise that their tears were not a weakness. They were humanity.

“We are sorry for the ridicule. Thank you for caring. Thank you for speaking up. And may God comfort every family affected by this tragedy and restore peace to our nation”.
