#Children's Day: Patience Jonathan Hosts Last Children’s Day Party In Office

By


First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, today hosted Nigerian children to a party in Abuja, as they mark this year’s Children’s Day celebration.

Mrs Jonathan, who noted that the occasion was her last party that would be celebrated with the children and youths in the Presidential Villa, used the occasion to thank them for the respect and love they showed to her during her tenure in office.

She urged the children to be good and obedient children to their parents and remain patriotic to the nation.

Some of the children who spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) said they will miss Mrs Jonathan.

“I like the way she dances and plays with us whenever we come to the Villa for parties; I pray the new first lady will be dancing with us and giving us gifts during party,” Master Bolaji Oguns, said.

Patience Jonathan vacates the presidential villa on Friday as her husband leaves office as Nigeria’s President. President-elect Muhammadu Buhari will be sworn in on Friday.

See Wooden Bridge Constructed By Young Men In Adamawa State Without Government Support

By
This wooden bridge was constructed by young men in Adamawa without government support. The old bridge was destroyed by Boko Haram. It was a very important bridge that connects Adamawa North and Adamawa Central. Even the governor and other important people in the state use this wooden bridge when they visit their villages. Instead of rebuilding the bridge, the Adamawa state government recently announced that it will spend 200 million Naira on prayer warriors. I believe that is a misuse of public money. Nigerians are praying daily. You don't need to spend millions on prayers. The North East states have a lot of work to do in rebuilding the communities and infrastructures destroyed by Boko Haram. I don't think the governors in the region understand the magnitude of the problem. It is time for them to wake up and get their priorities right. If you know the Adamawa State governor, tell him that rebuilding this bridge is an important and urgent project.
