Two officials in Antigua and Barbuda issue Father’s Day messages extending greetings and appreciation to fathers and other father figures across the country. In one message, Kiz Johnson, Minister of State in the Ministry of Social and Urban Transformation, presents Father’s Day as an opportunity to recognize men who show up for their children and families. She highlights that many fathers contribute in everyday ways that may go unseen or unacknowledged, and she references fathers across Antigua and Barbuda supporting children through activities such as helping with homework and attending to their needs.
In a separate message, Rawdon Turner, also from the Ministry of Social and Urban Transformation, similarly offers warm greetings to fathers and expresses sincere appreciation for men who serve as father figures, mentors, and role models within communities. He frames fatherhood as an important responsibility and emphasizes the role of fathers in guiding and supporting their families.
Both messages focus on recognizing fathers’ contributions to family life and community support during Father’s Day.
