The Ada Owere Campaign Organisation, a political support group for Dr. Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, Labour Party candidate for the Owerri Federal Constituency seat in the House of Representatives, has felicitated with fathers across the constituency, describing them as critical pillars of family and community development.
In a Father’s Day message titled “Stronger Fathers, Stronger Families, Stronger Owerri,” the organisation stressed that the strength and progress of any society are rooted in the stability of its homes and the commitment of fathers to their responsibilities.
The group noted that fathers play roles that go beyond providing for their families, serving as mentors, protectors, guides, and sources of inspiration for their children and communities.
According to the organisation, the values of honesty, responsibility, hard work, respect, and compassion often take root through the leadership and example set by fathers, helping to shape responsible citizens and build a more progressive society.
The campaign organisation further stated that active fatherhood contributes significantly to stronger and more resilient families, providing children with the support needed to navigate life’s challenges while fostering an environment where love, discipline, and opportunity can thrive.
It added that strong families remain the foundation of a prosperous Owerri Federal Constituency, promoting peace, educational advancement, economic productivity, and social stability.
The group therefore commended fathers, father figures, guardians, and mentors across the constituency for their sacrifices, dedication, and unwavering commitment to raising future generations.
It also urged families and community leaders to continue investing in the upbringing of children and the strengthening of family values, noting that sustainable development begins at the household level.
The statement concluded with a call for collective efforts towards building homes that nurture excellence and communities that inspire hope, while extending warm Father’s Day wishes to all fathers in Owerri Federal Constituency.
