Bawumia pays tribute to women on International Women’s Day

Former Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has paid glowing tribute to women for their immense contributions to humanity, urging continuous recognition of their role in society.

In a social media post marking International Women’s Day, Dr Bawumia described the contributions of women as "immeasurable" and called for them to be honoured with "utmost respect."

"On this special day, I salute women in Ghana, and the world over, for their immeasurable impact on humanity," he wrote.

"Women's roles in our societies are indispensable, and we must continuously appreciate and honour them, by treating them fairly and with utmost respect."

Honouring women’s contributions

International Women’s Day, celebrated annually on March 8, recognises the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women worldwide. The occasion also serves as a reminder of the need to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment.

Dr Bawumia’s message aligns with the global call to accelerate action towards women’s rights and ensure that their contributions to nation-building and societal progress are duly recognised.
