Can This Happen In Nigeria? Obama Replies And Visits An Eight Year Old Girl by naijainfogalery: 10:30am On May 06, 2016
If there is anything that makes America great, It’s because their leaders have learned to listen to the voice of the masses.

A concerned eight year old girl who resides in Flint, Michigan; Mari Copeny also known as “Little Miss Flint” wrote to President Obama to inform him of the public health crises in her neighborhood.

In her letter, she also explained that she is heading towards the Presidents direction and would appreciate if she could meet with him or his wife during her trip to Washington, D.C.

But Obama after reading her letter, decided to pay her a visit at her home town in Flint, Michigan instead, on Wednesday May 4th, 2016 to meet and address the issues of public health crisis in her neighbourhood. This is to enable the president speak with the concerned community.

Here is Mari’s letter to President Obama, and his reply to little Miss Flint; Mari:



Mr. President,

Hello my name is Mari Copeny and I’m 8 years old, I live in Flint, Michigan and I’m more commonly known around town as “Little Miss Flint”. I am one of the children that is effected by this water, and I’ve been doing my best to march in protest and to speak out for all the kids that live here in Flint. This Thursday I will be riding a bus to Washington, D.C. to watch the congressional hearings of our Governor Rick Snyder. I know this is probably an odd request but I would love for a chance to meet you or your wife. My mom said chances are you will be too busy with more important things, but there is a lot of people coming on these buses and even just a meeting from you or your wife would really lift people’s spirits. Thank you for all that do for our country. I look forward to being able to come to Washington and to be able to see Gov. Snyder in person and to be able to be in the city where you live.
