The First Lady, Lordina Dramani Mahama, has affirmed that young women's worth is "a constant, anchored in the divine" in a world driven by social media pressures and societal milestones like age, appearance, and relationships, as she inspired aspiring women leaders at the 2026 Young Singles' Rally.

The event, held at the Glory Assemblies of God Church in Sakumono, was organised by the Greater Accra East Region Women Ministries of the church, which drew hundreds of young women from different branches of the church.

Represented by the Minister of Gender, Children and Social Protection, Dr Naa Momo Lartey, the First Lady urged the youth to use their time purposefully to deepen intimacy with God for an unshakable foundation, discover unique gifts to meet the world's needs, and build character.

Referencing the Biblical verse of Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you, plans to give you hope and a future", she reiterated that single life was not a "waiting room" but a "season of becoming".

The event was attended by the Regional Superintendent, Rev. Andrews Nelson Awintia; the Regional Young Singles Organiser, Rev. Florence Boatemaa Semenyo, church leaders, and an enthusiastic crowd of young women.

"Talent may get you to the top, but it is character that will keep you there," Mrs Mahama stated.

She warned against rushing growth, which could leave individuals unprepared for future blessings.

The First Lady emphasised integrity as "the currency of a purposeful life," advising against compromising standards for validation.

She encouraged young women to invest in education, professional skills and excellence, becoming "a force for change" in families, churches and the nation.

For those contemplating marriage, Mrs Mahama advised prioritising personal maturity, emotional health, financial discipline and spiritual growth over fears of being "left behind".

The First Lady commended the Women’s Ministries for their mentorship, calling it "the bridge to a brighter future".

The Greater Accra Superintendent of the Assemblies of God Church, Rev. Awintia, reinforced the feeling of spiritual satisfaction, urging young women to approach God directly through faith.

"You don’t need to go to God through your pastor or anyone. God is approachable and accessible to all," he stated. He added that God sometimes deliberately delays to test faith, but always comes through without disappointing.

The First Lady, at the end of the meeting, donated bags of rice, boxes of canned tomatoes, mackerel, sardines, oil, spaghetti, African print fabric, and an undisclosed amount of money to support the programme.

Rev. Mrs Florence Boatemaa Semenyo presented a citation and a customised Bible to Mrs Mahama in recognition of her dedication to God and humanity.
