The National Orientation Agency, NOA, has started a three-month sensitization campaign for the new national anthem.
This was announced during a press briefing on Tuesday by the agency as it launched the Enugu State sensitization and public enlightenment campaign for Nigeria’s new national anthem and national values charter.
Addressing journalists on the need for the nationwide sensitization campaign at the Federal Secretariat, NOA Director in Enugu State, Clara Nwachukwu, explained that because of Nigeria’s multilingual, multiethnic and multi-religious character, the country, since independence, has been struggling with the issue of national identity.
She said President Bola Tinubu’s administration has categorically stated that, NOA must build Nigerians to build Nigeria, through sensitization and reorientation campaigns, hence the need for the activity.
