“As a government, we recognise that for our children to blossom into the treasures they truly are, they must be supported with access to quality education, healthcare, a safe environment, and the right moral values,” the Governor stated.
He emphasised the administration’s ongoing reforms in the education sector, child-friendly policies, and inclusive governance that promotes the voice and participation of young people in shaping the future.
Governor Mutfwang also called on parents, teachers, community leaders, and all stakeholders to play active roles in nurturing the dreams and talents of children, while instilling values that promote peace, unity, innovation, and resilience.
