Speaking at the event, Dr Samuel Owusu underscored the need for women to be celebrated, especially amongst themselves.

He noticed that “women do not celebrate each other because women fear women”.

However, he also observed that the phenomenon is changing, urging women to do more to tolerate and celebrate each other, adding that it will help the country develop.

“Women are trying, but they need to do more. When women celebrate each other, there is Surety of peace, equality of development and serenity of life,” he said.

Meanwhile, Dr Samuel Owusu also appealed to men to give women the opportunity and hope to strive higher, saying that they will do better when given the opportunity.

Touching on Atinka TV’s missing Children, hosted by Regina Asamoah, Dr Samuel Owusu applauded the News Editor, and encouraged her to continue to re-unite missing children.
