It was a moment of appreciation, inspiration, and generosity as Chimaobi Desmond Anyaso addressed members of the Catholic Women Organization of Nigeria during the 2026 annual conference, Newsletter launch and Award ceremony held at Mater Dei Cathedral, Umuahia.

In an emotionally uplifting speech, Anyaso praised the women for their dedication to faith, family, and society.

“It is a joy and a privilege to be with you today. I sincerely celebrate your strength, your prayers, your sacrifices, and the love you pour into your families, the church, and our society,” he said.

Describing them as a “shining light,” he prayed for divine blessings and renewed energy upon them.

“May God bless you abundantly, renew your energy, and make this conference fruitful and memorable,” he said.

Anyaso also extended warm valentine wishes to the women.

“As we celebrate love, let me use this opportunity to wish each and every one of you a happy Valentine’s Day.”

To support the maiden newsletter of the organisation, he donated the sum of ₦500,000 to support the Catholic Women Organization, a gesture that was met with loud applause and appreciation.

The 2026 Women Conference gathered Catholic women from across Nigeria for spiritual growth, empowerment, and fellowship.
