Lorna Mashiba
Tribute
Ghana watches as Lordina Mahama champions maternal health initiatives, but her five children have long witnessed the more intimate moments of her maternal journey. The homework help despite exhaustion, the attendance at school events despite other responsibilities. We honour how she leads with care, showing that leadership is just motherhood applied to larger families.
