‘To all mothers who nurture, love and shape our families, you are the heroes of our nation. 

“I implore our mothers to continue to teach and guide the children, passing down wisdom and strength that would benefit future generations.

“May we all live to enjoy the fruits of our labour over our children, grand-children and great grand-children. 

“Happy Mother’s Day.”
