Today we salute all the women who brought us to this world and natured us into the human beings that we are today.
We honour you for delivering life to this world, for raising your children to be the best people they can be. You are the central pillar of your families and a source of strength for your children.
Today, we honour you for all the support you have provided to your children, protecting them from all kinds of harm. You are contributing to a better South Africa by making your children available for immunisation and other health services and they go to school. I thank all of you for being caring mothers.
As the Minister for Women, Children and Persons with Disabilities, I wish all women of South Africa a Happy Mother’s Day.
