Blessing Ibunge in Port Harcourt
Rivers State Governor, Mr. Siminalayi Fubara, has called on mothers to continue to nurture the young ones on moral uprightness and fortitude while remaining steadfast in promoting peace in the state.
Governor Fubara made the call yesterday in a message to mark the 2024 edition of Mothers’ Day celebration.
The governor also commended mothers all over the world for the crucial roles they play in the sustenance of peace, harmony and nation-building.
He said as mothers, they are the foundation upon which the family and society is built, stressing that their resilience and perseverance have helped foster peace in families, communities and the country.
The governor particularly praised the mothers in the state for their faith and support to the state government under his watch despite clandestine attempts by detractors to create atmosphere of crisis and paint negative narrative to scare away investors.
“The Rivers State Government celebrates with you on this special occasion that calls for introspection on the core essence of motherhood. Together, let us continue to work towards creating a society reflective of and uplifted by our good and upright motherhood,” Governor Fubara added.
