Gov. Diri Celebrates Women On Mothering Sunday

The governor of Bayelsa State, Senator Douye Diri, has congratulated women and mothers on the occasion of the 2025 International Mother’s Day, which is also known as Mothering Sunday.

According to a press release on Sunday, March 30, 2025, signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor of Bayelsa State, Daniel Alabrah, Governor Diri said the celebration was an opportunity to again recognise and acknowledge the significant role of mothers in the family, the society and in nation building.

He described the theme of this year’s celebration, “Beauty of Motherhood”, as quite captivating, as it reflects on the essence of motherhood.

“Mothers are builders and nurturers. They are the bulwark of family and societal cohesion and growth. Without them, every home, family and society will lose its salt and essence.

“This day offers an opportunity to reflect on the role of my mother, and indeed mothers, in the moulding of the right virtues in children. My mother, for instance, exhibited love and sacrifice beyond measure; a real epitome of the virtuous woman.

“I celebrate mothers on this special day and urge them to continue to be the glue that binds families and nations. Well-nurtured children produce a stable and cohesive society.”

The Bayelsa governor restated his administration’s commitment to affirmative action for women and mothers and uplifting them through the requisite skills acquisition and empowerment programmes.
