Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia with Mother
Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has expressed gratitude to Ghanaian women who go through several challenges to raise kids.
On the occasion of Mother’s Day on Sunday, May 14, Dr Bawumia said he wished to thank Ghanaian women “for the sacrifices, love and care”.
Meanwhile, First Lady Mrs Rebecca Akufo-Addo has sent her wishes to Ghanaian mothers as the world marks Mother’s Day today, Sunday 14 May.
“Today is Mother’s Day and I salute all mothers and mother figures. Motherhood is a tough job. Mothers never rest. A mother would move heaven and earth for her child. Mothers shape our lives, nurture our talents, and inspire us to achieve greater heights. Every mother deserves to have this special day,” she said in a statement.
As a mother, Mrs Akufo-Addo said she is mindful of the struggles mothers go through, as they work tirelessly to instil discipline, protect and create opportunities for a better life for their children.
She urged all mothers to keep up the “good work” even in the face of challenges, knowing that in due course “we would all enjoy the fruit of our labour”.
She also urged everyone to appreciate all the mothers in our lives because they are “simply phenomenal”, adding: “Whether this woman is your mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, foster or adoptive mother, please remember to say thank you today. These women deserve your appreciation.”
