FG MANDATES NATIONAL VALUES IN CHILDREN’S CARTOONS, LAUNCHES NATIONAL IDENTITY PROJECT                                                                                                    21-10-24

               By Sadiq Aminu                                                                   The Federal Government has approved the compulsory nationalization of children’s cartoon broadcasts to focus on promoting Nigerian values. This move is part of a broader effort to instil good morals and strengthen the nation’s identity.

Director-General of the National Orientation Agency (NOA), Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, announced during a one-day stakeholders’ town hall meeting in Lafia, Nasarawa State. The event was organized by the NOA to raise awareness about the federal government’s National Identity Project and the importance of the National Anthem.

In his address, Mallam Issa-Onilu emphasized the need for nationwide collaboration in promoting unity and values, stating that “the drive towards a better Nigeria requires collective dialogue centred on shared values and unity in diversity.”

Represented by the Deputy Director of Budget, Mallam Ibrahim Umaru, the NOA Director-General urged stakeholders to embrace a change in attitude and serve as champions of government initiatives that benefit all citizens. “We must be vanguards for promoting the programs of the government and its intentions for the common good of the citizens,” Umaru said.

Dr. Priscilla Gonduo-alour, Nasarawa State Director of the NOA, highlighted the National Identity Project’s goal of fostering commitment among both leaders and citizens. She added, “The first stanza of the National Anthem will be rendered at all official functions, while the full three stanzas will be reserved for special occasions, such as Independence Day, Democracy Day, and the inauguration of the National Assembly.”

Justice Sidi Bage, the Emir of Lafia (retired), represented by Mallam Dahiru Aliyu, District Head of Lafia North, emphasized the importance of embracing Nigeria’s diversity to build a united and prosperous nation. “Nigerians should utilize their differences to forge a strong and successful country,” he noted.

The town hall meeting, themed “The National Identity Project,” featured interactive sessions, with participants engaging in discussions and asking questions.

The NOA confirmed that the awareness and sensitization campaign on the National Identity Project and proper use of the National Anthem will continue in post-primary schools and tertiary institutions.
