"It is an honor indeed to be given an award for the Woman of the Year. Woman of the Year is a very powerful recognition. I remember five years ago, the Democracy Year Award gave me the award for the Best First Lady of the Year, this was whole five years ago and I had a bit of relationship with the award for quiet a long time and it is good to see that it is growing bigger and stronger. So this, uhmm yeah, being named the Woman of the Year is really very heart warming because it resonates and shows me that people are noticing what we are doing. People are watching and listening. I love the fact that it is a voting sort of award. The ceremony is not just nominations. The people actually voted. I want to really thank those out there that took the time to vote for me to become "Woman of the Year 2025". This obviously, you know, as you asked, is a powerful testimony at what we have being doing and it will continue to spur me on to do even more..."
