Wife of the Governor of Anambra state, Mrs Nonye Soludo says parenting has gone from being just a responsibility to a family unit to a task for the overall good of the larger society.

 

Mrs Soludo stated this in a statement released in Awka to celebrate parents on the 2023 Global Day of Parents.

 

The governor’s wife, while describing parents as important stakeholders in the progress of any society, noted that parental responsibilities have also increased greatly with changing human and environmental factors, including culture, traditions, migration, technology and education.

 

She said that parents should be more commitment to family responsibilities to raise the right children.

 

Mrs Soludo also explained that it is important for parents to teach their children and wards the basic etiquettes of life, culture and traditions, including their mother tongues, dialects, love, patience, respect for constituted authorities, hygiene and personal cleanliness, hard work and communalism.

 

The governor’s wife also urged parents to begin to see parenthood as a rare blessing, pointing out that one failed home is one of society’s loss.

 

While wishing all parents in Anambra State and around the world a worthy fulfilled home, the Anambra first lady implored them to always live a life that will reflect a good example for those looking up to them.
