Women from various churches, political affiliations, and walks of life joined in fervent prayer for the state's success, enhanced security, unity among women, and equitable resource distribution.
The collaborative spirit was palpable as women engaged in meaningful discussions and forged stronger bonds of solidarity, peace and unity of Gov. Peter Mbah's Administration.
The women took turns to express gratitude for the overwhelming support of the First Lady, Mrs Nkechinyere Mbah and participation, lauding her commitment to fostering unity, empowerment, and collective action among the women of Enugu State.
