In celebration of Mothering Sunday, observed across Anglican Churches yesterday , Anambra State Governor’s Wife, Nonye Soludo, has explained that mothers form the nucleus of humanity and must always be celebrated.
The governor’s wife, who stated this in Awka, in a statement to commemorate the day, said that mothers deserve to be celebrated every day because of the immeasurable roles they play in family and society .
She also noted that the annual occasion should not only remind everyone of the essence of motherhood, but must be seen as a period to dissect vast issues that affect the existence of women and the girl child, including rising cases of gender-based violence and abuses.
Mrs. Soludo, who re-echoed the importance of women in politics, said that the time is ripe enough for them to get more involved and sit at a round table where issues that concern their political future are discussed.
She further urged mothers to use the occasion to think of and discuss how they can work better on themselves; acquiring basic skills and taking courses in vocations that could help them become more valuable and financially independent.
While wishing all Anglican Mothers, especially those living in Anambra State, a fruitful Mothers’ Sunday celebration, Mrs. Soludo assured them that her husband’s administration is taking issues that affect women, children and girls very serious.
