By Praise Chinecherem

Wife of Anambra state Governor, Dr. (Mrs) Nonye Soludo has urged women in the state to take advantage of the annual August Meeting to discuss fundamental issues affecting family and society.

The governor’s wife in a statement said August Meetings should provide important platforms for women to point out peculiar problems that need urgent attention beginning from the ones happening around them.

She called for greater awareness on proper family planning among couples, warning that unplanned home remained impending disaster for society.

“It’s important to draw attention to rising moral deficits in child raising, depreciation of family values, drug abuse among school children, parental neglects and quest for illicit wealth among youths as key problems that August meetings can address.

“It is time for August Meetings to move away from what it used to be to take a deeper dive into promoting communal and religious peace, tolerance, and solving critical issues.

“The platform should offer women opportunities for ideological reforms, social growth, and economic empowerment,” she added.

Soludo also urged the women to figure out viable avenues to reach out to members who are struggling with faith and life and to also dedicate time to spiritual revival.

While wishing all Anambra women attending this year’s August Meeting a peaceful and fulfilled outing, the governor’s wife asked them to remember the state and the country in their prayers.
