Hospitals on Monday.

“Just as it is saddled on the husbands to provide for the family, it is also the woman’s duty to support her
husband to build the family in love and in unity.”
Speaking further, Lady Fubara said that Christmas is a very important event in christendom and urged Christiansto emulate the life of Christ in all ramifications.
