Captain George Nfodjoh (Rtd), Member of Parliament for Ho Central, at the weekend challenged wives of men in the security services to take advantage of long distance education programmes to upgrade themselves.
“Don’t just sit down as wives of soldiers, policemen or prison officers but take advantage of the educational opportunities to upgrade yourselves,” he advised.
Capt Nfodjo gave the advice when he organized an “inter security wives’ games” for security services in Ho to mark this year’s Senior Citizens Day.
The event was to further strengthen the “spirit de corps” among the personnel and their families.
Capt Nfodjoh said there is no age limit for education and urged the women to develop interest in seeking further education so they could better understand the work of their husbands.
He pledged his willingness to support any of the women who is desirous to upgrade herself academically.
The MP donated a number of jerseys, footballs and trophies towards the games and promised to make the event an annual one to help the wives of men in security services to be physically and mentally.
Police Wives were adjudged the overall winners of the event.
