The first lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dame Patience
Jonathan has made headlines for different reasons in the past
especially on account of the meeting she convened with supposed
relatives of the kidnapped Chibok girls.
However, the latest incident of mistaken
identity allegedly commiited by Mrs Jonathan pitches the President’s
wife against no less a personality than America’s award-winning music
star, Alicia Keys A tweet by Alicia Quarles, the University of Southern California graduate and TV personality who currently works with E!, indicates the first lady has made a request to the lady to come and perform for her in Nigeria, obviously mistaking her for Alicia Keys.
Although Quarles did not provide further details on whether the approach was personally made by Dame Patience Jonathan or somebody from her camp, it is believed the request must have been made in the excitement of being introduced to Alicia Quarles whose name doesn’t come out so different from Alicia Keys’ name when properly pronounced. ‘The First Lady of Nigeria just invited me to sing in her country. I had to break it to her that I’m Alicia Quarles, not @aliciakeys comedy,’ she wrote.
It is however, not confirmed if the First Lady actually invited her to sing in the country but it looks like Alicia Quarles deleted the tweet soon after.
