Ms Awosika emphasised the importance of shaping young minds early enough to avoid future challenges. She pointed out that investing in people ensures long-term value and benefits nations, communities, and the church.

The president of the Woman to Woman Ministry of the Church, Abuja, Chichi Aigbe, encouraged women to support their husbands and stay rooted in faith.
