Mother’s Day: We’re the pillars of our homes and the heartbeat of our nation – First Lady to all women

First Lady of the Republic of Ghana, Lordina Mahama has sent a heartfelt message to all women in the country to mark the Mother’s Day celebration.

In a statement released on May 11 by the Office of the First Lady, Lordina Mahama expressed gratitude to all mothers for their incredible strength, unwavering love, and countless sacrifices that mothers make daily.

The First Lady also highlighted the nurturing innate of mothers and contributions to their various families through their wise counsel and assistance to their husbands.

“My dear mothers and remarkable women of Ghana, on this beautiful occasion of Mother’s Day, my heart is filled with profound gratitude and admiration for each of you.

“We are the pillars of our homes and the heartbeat of our nation. Mothers nurture the future. Our nurturing hands, wise counsel, and unconditional assistance foster strong families and communities, laying the groundwork for a compassionate society,” she said.

She noted: “My dear mothers, I know your daily efforts and challenges as you strive to build better lives for yourselves and your families. The well-being of our homes and children is intrinsically linked to the progress and stability of our nation.”

The First Lady further assured all women of her continuous support to vulnerable women and to continue to empower women through skills training and economic support, advocate for their rights, and provide essential assistance to those who need it most, including children and persons living with HIV/AIDS.

“My commitment to supporting women and vulnerable groups in Ghana remains as strong as ever,” she added.

She said government and the Lordina Foundation are dedicated to improving healthcare facilities across the country, specifically by providing modern, fully equipped maternity and children’s wards in hospitals, underscoring the critical attention needed to be given to healthcare, particularly for mothers and children.

“Ensuring that mothers receive the best possible care during pregnancy and childbirth and that our children have access to quality health services is a cause very close to my heart, and I will continue to champion it,” she assured.

Lordina Mahama noted that it is her deepest conviction of creating an environment where every Ghanaian family can prosper, a belief she said is paramount and shared wholeheartedly by President John Dramani Mahama.

“He remains steadfast in his commitment to resetting our economy to achieve robust and inclusive growth, creating more job opportunities for our youth and all citizens.

“He is also dedicated to positioning Ghana as a preferred destination for local and international investment and business, ultimately aimed at improving the living conditions for all Ghanaians and ensuring a brighter future for our children,” the First Lady emphasized.

She urged mothers to bear in mind that their sacrifices, strength, and love are seen, valued, and deeply appreciated by your families, communities, and nation.

“May God bless you abundantly for all that you do. May your day be filled with joy, peace, and the profound love you so richly deserve.

“Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers and women of Ghana,” she shared.
