According to her women needs to always be in good term with their husbands and perform their roles as expected.
“I am highly delighted to be here seeing us as women. I am very happy because we are the pillar of the society. Without us the society can not thrive well.
“As women we have a great role to play in our various homes and the society we belong to. Let’s start from our homes, as wife, how do we relate with our husbands? How are we maintaining our house? How are we supporting our husbands? Are we contented with what our husbands is giving us? Are we the type that used to compare our home with others?
“As wives in our various homes, let it be in our mind that we have to be a great pillar to our husbands”

She also added that women should be humble and ready to give assistance to those in need of it at all times.
“The society is a reflection of the type of women we have because people like the armed robbers, kidnappers, prostitutes all come from home. The Bible and Holy Quran told us to train our children in the way of God.
“Besides, anywhere we are let’s assist others and be humble” she said.
