Sharing an advice at a forum organized by the eTranzact last Wednesday to mark this year’s International Women’s Day in Accra, Mrs. Owusu Ekuful said “we do come by crossroads some moments in our lives, and whatever decisions you take in life will influence your future and we have to take it carefully”.The 2024 International Women’s Day was celebrated in the theme was Innovation and technology for gender equality.
The theme emphasizes the need to celebrate women’s achievement, raise awareness about discrimination and take action to drive gender parity.
She admonished young ladies not to live a life of regret, observing that every decision one took had consequences and that people must be prepared to bear the outcomes of their decisions.
