Today, we join the world in honouring and celebrating one of life’s greatest blessings — Mothers. On this Mother’s Day, I pay tribute not only to my own beloved mother, but to all mothers across the world, especially those within our noble legal community.
Mother’s Day is more than a tradition — it is a profound reminder of the enduring love, strength, and resilience that mothers bring to the world. It is a moment to reflect on the extraordinary impact mothers have on families, communities, and the society at large.

In the legal profession, the contributions of mothers are deeply inspiring. Whether serving as legal practitioners, judges, mentors, administrators, or as silent supporters behind the scenes, their presence continues to shape the values of discipline, empathy, justice, and balance that are central to the practice of law.
Many of our finest lawyers, leaders, and advocates have been nurtured by the unwavering guidance of mothers who instilled in them the principles of honesty, perseverance, and service.
As nurturers of character, defenders of truth, and beacons of patience, mothers are foundational to both personal and professional growth. To the mothers who juggle family and career with grace, to those who raise the next generation of leaders with wisdom, and to those whose prayers and sacrifices remain unseen but deeply felt — we celebrate you today and always.
May your lives be filled with the honour, joy, and love you so richly deserve. Thank you for your sacrifices, your strength, and your unshakable faith in your children and in justice.
Happy Mother’s Day.
With deepest respect and admiration,
