Adesanya-Davies also delivered a paper at the event titled:”Russia/Ukraine Crisis: The Plea of Mothers in Post Covid-19 Era”. It reads in part,
“The main aim of this paper is to appeal, plead, and persuade all involved in the spirit of peace and one love to please put an end to the Ukraine/Russia war. The mother’s plea is to appease both sides without apportioning any blame.

We as mothers in the world write to appeal the decision of the war and it’s current escalation in Ukraine and Russia. No apportioning of blames to any side or party at all please – JUST A PLEA ! We appeal to Ukraine and Russia and NATO and the rest countries taking sides. We pray for the various world leaders involved in diplomacy over Ukraine and Russia.

This is to have the situation reconsidered, and overturned without any form of blame game. I write and speak in my capacity as the Country President and International Director of the United Nations Positive Livelihood Award Centre, International Peace Advocate  (UN-POLAC).
