News Highlights:
- QNET says Mother’s Day should go beyond celebration, urging a stronger focus on mothers’ physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing amid rising stress and caregiving pressures.
- The company highlighted Nigeria’s wellness and sanitation challenges while promoting healthier lifestyles and wellness-supporting products to improve family health.
As the world marks Mother’s Day, QNET, a global lifestyle and wellness-focused direct selling company, is shining a spotlight on mothers as the often-unseen pillars of family wellness, emotional stability, and community strength.
Beyond nurturing homes and supporting loved ones, many mothers today are also balancing demanding careers, business responsibilities, and the pressures of everyday survival in an increasingly fast-paced world.
Despite their critical role in keeping families and communities functioning, mothers frequently place their own health and wellbeing last. The growing pressures of modern living have continued to affect physical, emotional, and mental wellness, particularly among working women who shoulder multiple responsibilities daily.
Recent reports show that nearly 75 per cent of Nigerian workers experience work-related stress, while 60 per cent admit to constantly feeling overwhelmed.
For many mothers, these challenges are amplified by economic realities that require them to combine professional obligations with caregiving, household management, and financial responsibilities. The result is a relentless cycle of activity that leaves little room for adequate rest, recovery, or intentional self-care, exposing many women to prolonged physical and mental exhaustion.
Against this backdrop, QNET says Mother’s Day serves as a timely reminder to prioritise the wellbeing of mothers, not only through appreciation and recognition but also by encouraging healthier lifestyles, emotional balance, and access to wellness-supporting solutions that help them navigate the demands of modern life.
At the same time, access to basic wellness essentials remains a challenge. According to data from the WHO and UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme, 28% of Nigerians lack access to basic drinking water, approximately 75% lack basic sanitation, two-thirds do not live in premises with a handwashing facility that includes soap and water, while 20% practice open defecation. In many homes, ensuring safe water and overall family health largely falls to mothers, further reinforcing their central role in household well-being.
This reality highlights the importance of recognising and celebrating mothers who consistently take on this responsibility, often placing the needs of their families above their own.
Commenting on the significance of the global observance, Ayokunmi Solesi, General Manager for QNET Nigeria, said, “Mothers are the backbone of many households. They give their time, energy, and care so consistently that their own well-being can sometimes take a back seat. Mother’s Day is an important reminder that supporting mothers’ health and wellness is not just a personal priority, but a family and societal one.”
He added that this perspective aligns with QNET’s 2026 global campaign, “Energised, Every Day,” which focuses on practical solutions that support everyday living. “When mothers are well-supported and energised, it positively impacts the entire household. Wellness should be part of daily life.”
As conversations around health continue to evolve, there is a growing shift towards preventive and lifestyle-based wellness – simple, consistent actions that support long-term vitality. This includes prioritising proper nutrition, hydration, rest, and balance as part of everyday routines, particularly for individuals managing demanding schedules.
Supporting this approach, QNET offers a range of products designed to fit seamlessly into daily life. Its nutritional supplement, EDG3 Plus, provides essential nutrients that contribute to daily vitality and help individuals maintain energy levels throughout busy days.
Recognising the importance of safe hydration in overall health, the HomePure Nova helps improve the quality of drinking water at home, supporting healthier households and reducing exposure to common water impurities. In many Nigerian homes, where women play a key role in managing family health, access to cleaner water remains an essential part of everyday wellbeing.
Complementing this is the Amezcua Bio Disc 3, part of QNET’s wellness range, designed to support overall wellbeing across different aspects of daily life. Its versatile use within the home – from supporting food preservation to enhancing water quality and contributing to a more balanced living environment – makes it a practical wellness companion for families, particularly mothers managing multiple household needs.
As Mother’s Day is observed this year, QNET encourages families and communities to not only celebrate mothers but also to actively support their wellbeing. By creating healthier homes and encouraging better daily habits, the company reinforces its belief that true wellness begins with everyday choices and with those who hold the family together.
