Patience Jonathan and Amaechi reunite at Abia (photo)
It appears that the feud between Nigeria's former first lady Patience Jonathan and minister of transport, Rotimi Amaechi, is over.
The duo were spotted on Saturday, August 20 at the funeral mass of former minister of foreign affairs, Ojo Madueke, in Abia state.
Patience and Amaechi were constantly at loggerheads during the last administration as they battled for control of Rivers state where they both come from.
It was alleged that the real quarrel between Jonathan’s wife and Amaechi,started when the first lady tongue-lashed the former governor for the demolition of houses in her town Okrika to make way for educational structures.

Patience’s grouse is that Amaechi looked certain to demolish and compensate the people without first seeking their consent; Amaechi’s is about the manner in which the first lady addressed the matter in public without according him due respect as man constitutionally saddled with the task of running the state.
Although there’s only an eight-year gap between the two of them, Patience once referred to Amaechi as “my son”.
