As the world marks the 2026 International Women’s Day, an aspirant for the Pankshin North State House of Assembly, Bldr. Raphael Rume, has extended warm felicitations to women across Pankshin North, Plateau State, Nigeria, and the global community, acknowledging their immense contributions to family life, community development, and nation building.
In a goodwill message made available to the press, Rume described women as the true pillars of homes and communities, noting that their resilience, courage, and dedication continue to shape the moral and economic fabric of society. According to him, women play a vital role in nurturing families, raising responsible children, and sustaining the social values that hold communities together.
The aspirant emphasized that the strength and wisdom of women have long been recognized, even in scripture. Citing Proverbs 31:26–27, he noted: “She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.” He said the passage perfectly reflects the leadership, diligence, and compassion that women demonstrate in daily life.
Rume further assured that his vision for leadership in Pankshin North includes policies and initiatives that will support, empower, and recognize the role of women in governance, education, economic development, and community growth. He stressed that women’s voices and participation remain essential in building a stronger and more inclusive society.
While celebrating the occasion, the aspirant commended the sacrifices and determination of women who continue to stand as agents of stability and progress, despite social and economic challenges.
“Today, I celebrate your strength, your sacrifices, and your invaluable contributions to our society,” he stated.
Rume concluded by wishing all the amazing women of Pankshin North, Pankshin Local Government, Plateau State, Nigeria, and the world at large a happy International Women’s Day, encouraging continued unity and collective effort toward a more prosperous future. No just hearing it
