Agyeman_Rawlings congratulates 31st DWM members

Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, President of the 31st December Women's Movement on Monday congratulated members of the movement on the occasion of their 19th anniversary.

A statement signed by her said, "May 15, marked the 19th anniversary of the day that the dynamic women of this country resolved never to be left behind but be part of the decision making process".

She said women then resolved to advance their cause politically, socially, economically and culturally while supporting the reconstruction efforts.

"Our hard work has created an awareness which has resulted in the desire of every political party to put women in the forefront of activities," the former first lady said.

This, Nana Konadu said was enough to spur the members on to remain undaunted, united, and strengthened to ensure the total advancement of women in all spheres of the Ghanaian life.
