Former First Lady Lordina Mahama has called for reforms to protect and promote the interest of women.
According to her, the roles played by females in various occupations amidst the Covid-19 pandemic have been commendable.
She called on stakeholders to “push for greater reforms to promote the interest of women and protect them from all form of violence.”
In her view, making the world a better place implies that female doctors, nurses, scientists, caregivers, researchers among others are given the necessary credit for their tremendous efforts in ensuring the safety of all citizens in such daring times.

Meanwhile, the First Lady Mrs. Rebecca Akufo-Addo believes that if ”we affirm that women are more than capable of making a positive difference in our communities, regardless of the field of endeavor. Experience has shown this; the evidence attests to this. We therefore choose to challenge any opinion, action, norm and practice that does not uphold the truth”.
She said: “Indeed, building an inclusive and resilient society in tandem with the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals and achievement of the 2021 IWD theme calls for unity and focus, both by women and men in Ghana and yonder.
“A challenged world is, indeed, an alert world. Therefore, everyone must truly embrace the challenge by making the International Women’s Day the focal point to contribute their quota, actively, to make a positive difference for women,” she added.
