President Jonathan’s Delegation to Brazil is World’s Largest, at 116!

Contrary to Mr. Jona's pledge in January to travel at less weight and expense, its been gathered that our president took with him 116 men and women for the United Nation Earth Summit which have been told is the largest.


The team according to sources is made up of:

•   25 personal aides

•   18 aides of Patience Jonathan

•   2 members of the National Assembly

•   5 Ministers

•   2 Governors, and

•   63 officials from the Ministries of Environment, Foreign Affairs, National Planning and  

     Petroleum Resources.


The junket will continue for Mr. Jonathan next week Thursday when he will be in Brussels for the World Customs Conference, scheduled for June 28-30.  He will be taking with him about 57 people, including 26 aides, 3 Ministers, 8 members of the National Assembly, and 20 other government officials.  


From June 25 to 29, Mrs. Jonathan will be in Maryland, United States, accompanied by 36 people: 18 aides, 4 wives of Governors, and 14 friends and associates.


Okay... I know it is important to take along delegates on trips, but what I don't get is the number. Abeg I need explanation of each person's duty.
