President
Muhammadu Buhari invited a 10-year-old girl named Aysha Aliyu Gebi from Bauchi
state to the s
tate house in Abuja after her letter requesting to see him
surfaced online, along with two other little girls. The president hosted three
of his young admirers at the presidential villa, Abuja. The three kids spent
about 30 minutes with the president Monday morning.
The three children;
Nicole Benson, from Lagos, Maya Jamal from Abuja and Aisha Gebbi from Bauchi
have shown their support for the president in different ways.
According to
reports, Ms. Benson, a nine-year-old pupil of Greensprings School Lekki in
Lagos, made headlines prior to the 2015 presidential election when she donated
her lunch ticket to then candidate Buhari as her contribution to his
presidential campaign.
Maya Jamal,
the three-year-old daughter of a popular social media user, “White Nigerian”
was seen in a 10 second video praying for the quick recovery of Mr. Buhari
while he was in London receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment.
Aisha, who
is a 10-year-old from Bauchi, penned a letter seeking a face-to-face meeting
with the president, which was posted by her niece, Huseini Gebi, asking for a
retweet to make her dream a reality. The letter caught the eyes of President
Buhari’s personal assistant on new media, Bashir Ahmad, who showed the
President over the weekend and he has asked for her to come and see him.
