GIRL DONATES LUNCH MONEY TO APC, WRITES FASHOLA AND APC
I must say this that some things
happen that is beyond scientific explanation, while surfing the internet I stumble
on something that I think it worth sharing. It is a story of a 9 year old girl
who donated her lunch money to aids the campaign of the All Progressive
Congress (APC) party with aim that she wants General Buhari to win this coming
Election and later writes a letter to the Lagos State Governor, Barrister
Babatunde Raji Fashola.
This event might not be that
recent, but there are lessons to be learnt from the letter. For a girl of 9
years old to have this type of thinking as stated in the letter at her age…it’s
amazing.
Read below the letter from the
girl to Fashola and APC:
Dear APC and governor Fashola,
My name is Nicole Benson. I am 9
years old. The name of my school is Greensprings School lekki campus and I am
in year 4 peters. I want to be a doctor when I grow up so that I can take care
of people who are sick and dying because they take care of me when I am sick.
Governor fashola and apc I was
listening to the radio on my way to school today and I heard that we can send
money to you to help you to win the election. My mummy said that I can donate
from N100 so that we can help APC to raise the money to win the election and
remove president goodluck Jonathan so that mr buhari and professor osinbajo can
be the new president and assistant president and be able to help Nigeria to
fight the boko haram people who are killing innocent children and also bring
back the Chibok girls so that their mummies and daddies can be happy.
Governor Fashola and APC, please
don’t you think that N100 is too small? I have the new N100 notes but I am
sorry I will not be able to give it to you because I only have one and I want
to keep it in my wallet. But I have N5785 that I saved from my lunch money and
pocket money and toothfairy money. I know it’s my mummy giving the toothfairy
the money to give me because I found my tooth in her wallet last year. and I
want to give you all my money that I saved so that you can win in February.
I have N5785 naira and also N8
but the N8 is in coins and it’s only in Shoprite that they gave me so I want to
go and spend it there. I wanted to buy my inhaler disk but my daddy has bought
another new one for me. I have given my mummy the money and she put it on her
card to pay it on your website and she paid it now. I wish I could get more
money for you but that will be next week when I get more lunch money from my daddy
and toothfairy can’t give me any more money because all my teeth have all grown
back. I can still save more money for you and give you in February.
Please help me give some of the
money to Mr Ambode too so that he can win Mr Jimmy Agbaje. I like Mr Ambode
very much.
I wish you Goodluck not Goodluck
Jonathan but best of luck and please you can call my mummy’s number if you need
me to send the money I want to save for you.But you will have to give me some
time to save it.
Please say hello to Mr Ambode, Mr
Buhari and professor Osinbajo for me.”
When Chukwuemeka Ike wrote a novel and entitled it Our Children Are Coming, I guess no one thouht they would come so soon. However, I had studied (not read) the supposed letter from this 9 years old girl without applying logic I accepted the letter as it was and appreciate the diction. In other words, the girl wrote like a child she is. If I were not a supporte Buhari, I would have started digging deeper to pointing out certain inconsistencies in the use of words. For instance, a child writing would not be clear in applying play on words (PUN). The General is an honourable man whose integrity is not in question, therefore people by the side should leave out unnecessary sentiment with the aim of drawing sympathy to him or the party.
