The wife of the Lagos State Governor, Claudiana Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu and her Plateau countrerpart, Helen Mutfwang, have called on Nigerian women to pray for the country and its leaders at this time of economic crisis facing the nation.
They both urged women across the nation to shun ethnicity but stay united to pray for Nigeria and its leaders, reminding them of the power that lies within collectives efforts and shared cooperations.
They said this during the Young Women’s Christian Association of Nigeria ((YWCA) 2024 quadrennial convention, with the theme; “Strength In Unity”, held at Archbishop Akinde Centre, Bariga, Lagos.
Mutfwang, who was represented by her state’s Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Carolina Dafur, urged the women to pray for Nigeria and the peace of Plateau State, noting that they couldn’t celebrate Christmas due insecurity in the state.
Sanwo-Olu’s who was represented by Comfort Adeleke, said there is a need for prayers to face the challenges together.
She said that she believed in prayers., nothing that they all gathered in Lagos state because there is peace, but in some other places, they could not sit as they do.
She said that any initiative or cause geared towards addressing Issues affecting women and girls should not and most not be trivialised, adding that women plays a key role in socio -economic development and inculcating the right virtues and values from the home front.
Also, Chairperson of members of the Interim Group of YWCA Nigeria, Justice Rahila Adebisi, said that one of the major things that had plague YWCA was lack of trust and suspicion of each other.
She however, urged the new executives to walk in unity just like the theme of the event and turn things around in YWCA.
