President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan wishes all mothers in the country a very happy Mother’s Day celebration.
As they mark the day set aside worldwide to commemorate mothers and their great, unique and indispensable service to humanity, President Jonathan salutes all Nigerian women and mothers.
The President assures them that the Federal Government will continue to do all within its powers to further empower them to play their immense, God-given role for the greater glory of our dear nation.
As he has promised on many occasions, President Jonathan reaffirms that his administration will continue to progressively strengthen its affirmative actions in favour of girls, women and mothers while intensifying its actions aimed at promoting gender equality in the nation.
The President who attended a special service at the Presidential Villa to commemorate Mothers’ Day with his mother, Madam Eunice Jonathan and the First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, prays that God Almighty will bless all Nigerian mothers mightily and reward them for the immense love and care with which they continue to nurture and raise worthy children on whom the future prospects of our great nation will depend.
