Mother’s Day Message from H.E. Mrs. Lordina Dramani Mahama, First Lady of Ghana
My dear mothers and remarkable women of Ghana, on this beautiful occasion of Mother’s Day, my heart is filled with profound gratitude and admiration for each of you. Today is an opportunity to pause and honour the incredible strength, unwavering love, and countless sacrifices that mothers make daily. We are the pillars of our homes and the heartbeat of our nation. Mothers nurture the future. Our nurturing hands, wise counsel, and unconditional assistance foster strong families and communities, laying the groundwork for a compassionate society.
My dear mothers, I know your daily efforts and challenges as you strive to build better lives for yourselves and your families. The well-being of our homes and children is intrinsically linked to the progress and stability of our nation.
My deepest conviction, a belief shared wholeheartedly by my husband, President John Dramani Mahama, is that creating an environment where every Ghanaian family can prosper is paramount. He remains steadfast in his commitment to resetting our economy to achieve robust and inclusive growth, creating more job opportunities for our youth and all citizens. He is also dedicated to positioning Ghana as a preferred destination for local and international investment and business, ultimately aimed at improving the living conditions for all Ghanaians and ensuring a brighter future for our children.
My commitment to supporting women and vulnerable groups in Ghana remains as strong as ever. Through the work of the Lordina Foundation, we will continue our efforts to empower women through skills training and economic support, advocate for their rights, and provide essential assistance to those who need it most, including children and persons living with HIV/AIDS.
A critical area of our focus is healthcare, particularly for mothers and children. We are dedicated to improving healthcare facilities across the country, specifically by providing modern, fully equipped maternity and children’s wards in hospitals. Ensuring that mothers receive the best possible care during pregnancy and childbirth and that our children have access to quality health services is a cause very close to my heart, and I will continue to champion it.
Today, as we celebrate mothers, know that your sacrifices, strength, and love are seen, valued, and deeply appreciated by your families, communities, and nation. May God bless you abundantly for all that you do. May your day be filled with joy, peace, and the profound love you so richly deserve.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers and women of Ghana.
H.E. Lordina Dramani Mahama
First Lady of the Republic of Ghana.
