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.
