any woman can have. It is also one of the most challenging jobs.
"A great mother is not an idle woman. She is a woman
who has prepared herself to meet up with the challenges of living. She doesn't have time for gossip. She is very focused. That kind of woman is a virtuous woman."
She urged mothers to
always seek knowledge , so that they can train their children in the right
direction.
"I want to encourage every woman, mothers and aspiring
mothers, to continue to learn new things. The more you know, the more you can
give out and the better children you can raise.
"That is the only way you can make the world a better
place."
She urged mothers to always dress appropriately to fit
different occasions. She said the
society should always appreciate mothers for their contributions to the development
of the state.

their wives, pointing out that once wives are happy, the homes will be happy.

Mothers are vital to the
development of the society. She urged mothers to always remain supportive
of their husbands as they build worthy families premised on Christian values.
