Dame Patience Jonathan
First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan on Friday
inaugurated the Subsidy Reinvestment and
Empowerment Programme Maternal and Child
Health otherwise known as MAMA Project with a
declaration that henceforth she should no longer be
called Patience but “Mama Peace.”
According to her, the peace evangelism was what
she would be preaching to bring an end to
insurgency and terrorism including the menace of
Boko Haram islamic sect in the country.
Speaking at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential
Villa, Abuja, venue of the event, she also stated that
her non-governmental organisation, Women for
Change Initiative, had signed a Memorandum of
Understanding with some international health
agencies and hospitals to build, equip and manage
the best hospital for women and children in Africa.
The SURE-P MCH is a direct intervention by the
Federal Government using the savings from the fuel
subsidy removal, to reduce the incidence of
maternal and child mortality.
The First Lady said, “My name is no more Patience
but now Mama Peace because I believe that without
peace, there will be no more women, no more
children and no more health sector. Without peace,
the international community will be afraid to come
and invest in our country.
“Peace is from the heart and not from the tongue or
lips; not what you say but what is in you. We pray
for genuine peace because peace is the key to our
arriving at our desired destination as a nation.
