In a statement on Sunday, June 15, the First Lady paid tribute to Nigerian fathers for their dedication to raising confident, responsible, and compassionate children.
She also acknowledged men who take on fatherhood roles through mentorship, guardianship, and community leadership.
The statement reads: "On this Father’s Day, I salute all Nigerian fathers who dedicate themselves to raising confident, responsible and compassionate children. I also celebrate the men who step into fatherhood roles through mentorship, guardianship, and community leadership.
"Let us continue to give men the support and enabling environment to function effectively as fathers. When fathers are involved, families grow stronger, and so does the nation.
"God bless all fathers, strengthen you in your responsibilities, and reward your labour with peace, joy, and fulfilment.
"Happy Father’s Day."
