“I want to assure every member of Ebonyi State that we will continue to defend them, especially the girl child and our boy child.
“We are fighting against gender-based violence. Ebonyi women are against any form of maltreatment, be it in the home or anywhere.
“So, if you know someone who is going through any form of maltreatment or abuse, don’t hesitate to call on us. We are mothers, and we are ready to fight against the abuses.
“We are ready to fight the perpetrators of these abuses and bring them to judgment. We have lawyers, and we are going to prosecute anyone who maltreats women, children, and girls,” she stated.
The First Lady implored women to value themselves in society by making something of themselves.
