Nigerian First Lady, Patience Jonathan: What a Makeover!

Posted in: , ,
I think I'm in love with the new look of our First Lady. Could this just be the effect of a smile?


For a woman who is best known for the picture immediately below, the ones that follow are amazing! Either she's lost some weight, or her photographer has awesome technical and photoshop skills. And massive props to the make-up and stylists too.

    She looks beautiful. If this was how she looked while making all her grammatical errors, we all would have been much kinder with our criticism... :-) Just kidding.

    On second thought, why wouldn't she look good when she has used our money to buy 3 oil ships, ehn. Mschewwwwwwwwwwwwwww

    as in i was shocked o. she looks so brushed up in the recent pics. pls let her maintain the look for atleast 4 years biko. and then next makeover should be the speech if she wants to keep on speaking english...if not, let her speak her native dialect biko

    She looks lovely. It's all about presentation. I've always known that. She doesn't look like she lost weight to me. She just has on better cloths that show off her figure and makes her look younger.

    I got this pictures sent to my email last week...No bi small ting oh! I think she looks really "made overly nice"...either she's lost some weight,or the designer hid them with the type of dress.

    Nice work by TRY too

    i think its a combination of photo editing and lost weight. She has a lot more "natural" definition in her neck and jawline. She looks amazing.

    WOW! See how pretty she looks! I think it's the makeup, hair and styling, but most importantly, the smile :D
