The leading aspirant in the upcoming national chairmanship contest of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Hon Stephen Asamoah Boateng (ASABEEE) has commended women around the world for their numerous sacrifices to our lives.
According to the former Local Government, Environment, Tourism and Information Minister, his own life has been greatly affected by his sweet mother, the late Mary Enchill; the Rt.Hon. Mrs. Margaret Thatcher (UK Prime Minister); numerous Aunties; and other women he’s come across.
Asabeee, as he is affectionately called maintains women have and continue to play crucial roles in the economy of the world and deserve and must be praised.
The NPP chairmanship aspirant, particularly, heaped praises on Ghanaian women for standing side-by-side with their male counterparts for the nation’s development.
Asabeee reminded all of us to keep in mind what Dr. James Kwegyir Aggrey aptly said,
“The surest way to keep people down is to educate the men and neglect the women. If you educate a man you simply educate an individual, but if you educate a woman, you educate a whole nation.”
Mr Boateng therefore commended Ghanaian women for what they do and asked them not to feel discouraged when they go through challenges.
“You are bold, determined, and tenacious and as the world celebrates you today know that we value your contributions wherever you are placed”, Asabeee passionately stressed.
