Imagine the world without women (I mean mothers); it would be chaotic, or worse, disorganized. Not to talk down on fathers or undermine their efforts to help raise a family, but mothers contribute and sacrifice half of their lives to raise children and future generations.
Mother’s Day celebration is marked worldwide. It is a day dedicated to responsible women who take motherhood responsibilities upon themselves without question. On this day, millions of calls, texts, and voice notes are sent to women to appreciate the sacrifices they have done for the past, current, and generations to come.
Ghana is not exempted from this celebration. In fact, Mother’s Day in Ghana is celebrated more than Father’s Day. The celebration includes activities like dinners, concerts, picnics, beach, and home parties.
Among the group of people who hold Mother’s Day celebrations dear to their hearts include musicians. Hundreds of songs have been released in honour of mothers by Ghanaian musicians. These songs are repeated every Mother’s Day.
