The member representing Enugu North and South Federal Constituency, Hon. Chimaobi Sam Atu, has called on Nigerians to recognise the unflinching sacrifices mothers make on a daily basis.
Hon. Atu made the call on Sunday in Enugu through a message published on his social media platforms in commemoration of this year’s Mothering Sunday.
He stated that mothers in every culture play very critical roles in shaping and molding the character of children, adding that their roles have been critical in both procreation and societal sustenance.
According to him, “No society can make any meaningful progress if mothers don’t make the kind of sacrifices they make. In fact, anybody can give birth, but not everyone can be a responsible mother.”
He urged families to recognise the indispensable roles of mothers always, while also striving toward ending domestic violence against them.
Hon. Atu also insisted that mothers should be given a very special place in governance and culture.
“We must always accord mothers their respect because their roles in both family and society at large are indispensable. Their contributions go beyond nurturing children; they shape the moral fabric of our communities and drive societal progress.”
