The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), FCT Council, has joined millions across the globe in celebrating mothers on this year’s Mothering Sunday, acknowledging their vital role in society and the journalism profession.

In a statement issued by the Secretary of Council, Jide Oyekunle, the Chairman of the Council, Comrade Grace Ike, praised the dedication, resilience, and sacrifices of mothers, particularly female journalists who continuously balance their professional responsibilities with family life.

“As journalists, we recognise and appreciate the resilience of female journalists who juggle the demands of their profession with their vital roles as mothers and caregivers. May this day serve as a reminder of their immense contributions to our homes, workplaces, and the nation at large,” she stated.

She further underscored the significant role of mothers in shaping narratives, nurturing future generations, and upholding the principles of truth and integrity within society.

The NUJ FCT Council urged society to continuously support mothers and ensure their efforts are duly recognised and appreciated.

The message extended warm wishes to all mothers, encouraging them to take pride in their invaluable contributions to their families, professions, and the nation.

Mothering Sunday, a long-standing tradition in many parts of the world, serves as an opportunity to honour the unconditional love and sacrifices of mothers, a sentiment echoed by the NUJ FCT Council in its message of appreciation.
