"content": "My prayer is that women be well protected and given all the support they need because when they are in control of finances and other resources, then everyone is assured of a better life. Since our theme for the day is “Gender equality for a better tomorrow,” mine is to say that let us strive to build the capacity for women in the entire country and in different counties, because even those who have not gone to school have that knowledge that can help the families and build the society. Many have not gone to school, but we keep on saying that we are the way we are because of our mothers. I am the way I am because of the sacrifices that my mother made, stood with me and made me who I am today. Many great leaders have referred to their mothers as their role model, as people of respect. Women deserve protection. Women deserve all the support that they need to get from the Government, so that we can have that input that we can give to the society today. I salute all women and pray that all women who are aspiring to be leaders, to be elected in August, will all go through successfully, so that we can have a better society and a better nation under the leadership of great women that God has given us. Happy International Women’s Day. I thank you"
