Patience Jonathan was involved in controversy during the crisis over 230 Chibok girls abducted by Boko Haram in north - east Nigeria . After a meeting she convened in May 2014 with representatives of the Chibok community, whose children had been abducted, there were reports that one of the leaders - Naomi Mutah - had been detained by police . It was alleged that Mrs Jonathan had reportedly felt slighted that the mothers of the abducted girls had sent Ms Mutah to the meeting . Immediately after the meeting, Ms Mutah was taken to a police station and held . Pogo Bitrus, another Chibok community leader, described the detention as' unfortunate' and' insensitive', and said he hoped Mrs Jonathan would soon' realize her mistake' . Mrs Jonathan has no constitutional power to order arrests .
