Help North's dying children, Turai to Jonathan
Mrs. Turai Yar'Adua, wife of Nigeria's former President has asked President Goodluck Jonathan to appoint advisers with capacity to handle the Boko Haram amnesty.
She also said there was need for Mr President to replicate what her late husband did on the Niger Delta militancy to end the Boko Haram insurgency.
She was speaking during a posthumous award to Yar'Adua for his contribution to the development of the Niger Delta by the Niger Delta Young Professional (NDYP) in Lagos. Turai, almost in tears, urged Jonathan to have compassion on children dying in the North everyday, just as she maintained that poverty has turned the region into a death zone.
I think I am now for the amnesty if that would bring peace to our brothers and sisters in the North.
