The Kogi State Director of the City Boy Movement, Hon. Mark Ogah Okpanachi, has extended warm felicitations to women across Kogi State and Nigeria as the world commemorates the 2026 International Women’s Day.
Speaking on behalf of the movement, Hon. Ogah described the day as an important moment to appreciate women whose daily efforts strengthen families and sustain society.
He noted that the occasion provides an opportunity for reflection, gratitude, and renewed commitment to the advancement of women in every sphere of life.
Reflecting on this year’s theme, “Give to Gain,” Hon. Ogah observed that the message highlights a simple but profound truth, societies make meaningful progress when women are supported, encouraged, and given the opportunity to thrive.
According to him, the theme calls for intentional investment in women through mentorship, opportunities, knowledge-sharing, and inclusion. He emphasized that when women rise, communities rise with them.
He therefore encouraged women to continue believing in their value and capabilities, reminding them that they do not need to shrink themselves or struggle to prove their worth.
Hon. Ogah further noted that the philosophy of empowerment resonates strongly with the ideals promoted by the City Boy Movement under the guidance of its Grand Patron, Seyi Tinubu, and the national leadership led by Director-General Francis Oluwatosin Shoga. He stated that the movement remains committed to youth and women engagement at the grassroots, aligning its advocacy with the Renewed Hope vision of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The State Director concluded by urging women to pursue their aspirations with courage and confidence, stressing that every woman carries immense value and possesses the ability to positively influence her life and society at large.
On behalf of the City Boy Movement in Kogi State, he wished women a fulfilling International Women’s Day and advocated continued solidarity and mutual support to ensure that every woman has the opportunity to flourish.
