Ghanaians have marked this year’s Father’s Day celebration with appreciation posts to all fathers and father figures for their immense contribution to the lives of their family.
The First Lady’s post read: “Every Fathers’ Day is a reminder of the commitment and dedication the journey of fatherhood requires.
A lifetime of commitment to providing for us and giving us the adequate protection needed to grow. A day does not go by where we do not remember the sacrifices made by our towering fathers that got us here.
Over the last four years having watched and prayed for my husband as father of the nation, I have had a close view of the sleepless nights, the countless overstretches and the physical strain to make this country work. President Akufo-Addo remains a father we all would be proud of. I take this day and opportunity to celebrate all the wonderful Ghanaian men who work hard every day to make our world a better place. Happy Fathers’ Day!”
