The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the International Father’s Day is a day set aside for honouring fathers, as well as fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society.
“I salute all Nigerian fathers who dedicate themselves to raising confident, responsible and compassionate children.
“I also celebrate the men who step into fatherhood roles through mentorship, guardianship, and community leadership.
“Let us continue to give men the support and enabling environment to function effectively as fathers.
When fathers are involved, families grow stronger, and so does the nation.
