'I can't deliver your letter to Boko Haram leader' - First Lady tells kids

Some Nigerian children who paid a courtesy visit to First Lady
Patience Jonathan yesterday in Abuja to mark the Children's Day
celebration seized the opportunity to hand her letters they wrote to
Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau protesting the abduction of the
Chibok girls and asked the First Lady to pass the letter to him.

Mama Peace received the letter but immediately told the children that
she doesn't know who Shekau is but would give their letters to the
Chief of Defence Staff who would help deliver it accordingly..

"Let me thank the children that gave me letter to give Boko Haram.
Well, I have received your letter, but I'm not the one to give it to
Boko Haram because I don't know Boko Haram and I have never seen Boko
Haram. But I will give it to NSA or Chief of Defence Staff who will
submit your letter accordingly. To my children parliament, thank you
for your letter. Thank you for your deliberation. I have received what
you gave to me. I will make sure I pass it to the president because it
is addressed to him and the other one is addressed to Boko Haram. That
is why the two are different." she said Mama Peace advised the
children and Nigerians in general to desist from speaking evil or
reigning abuses on the President, saying he is the head of the country
as God has made him so. She drew her advice from the bible

"It is bad to abuse our country and the president because God has made
him the head. The almighty God commands us to pray for our leaders. We
therefore need to pray for the development of our country and the
president.

Remember that a child that abuses his father and mother is disobeying
God's commandment because the bible says in Exodus20:12 that you
should honour your father and mother so that you may live long in the
land that the Lord your God has given you. The holy Bible is not
referring to only biological parents. Any one that is older than you
even for a day must be respected. Let us therefore join hands and
rebuild our country Nigeria" she advised
