As the world marks Father’s Day, Engr. Tope Ogunsulire has extended warm and heartfelt greetings to all responsible fathers in Ondo Kingdom, recognizing their crucial role in the home and in society.
In a statement released from his residence in Texas, Engr. Ogunsulire commended fathers for their strength, leadership, and unwavering dedication to their families and communities.
“This day is an opportunity to honor the men who genuinely discharge their duties as fathers and husbands,” he stated. “A good father must first be a responsible husband, because charity begins at home.”
He emphasized that, particularly within the African context, the journey of fatherhood starts with being a committed husband—even before children come into the picture. True fatherhood, he noted, goes beyond biology and requires dedication, consistency, and moral leadership.
“A true father figure must embody commitment and integrity. That is what earns him the honor of being called a father,” Engr. Ogunsulire said.
He also used the occasion to encourage men to prioritize their health, reminding them that their well-being is essential to fulfilling their responsibilities.
“As we lead and serve, we must remember that health is wealth,” he advised.
Engr. Ogunsulire’s message stands as both a celebration and a call to action—urging men to continue upholding the noble values of fatherhood, responsibility, and strong family leadership.
