Valentine’s: FG Asks Citizens to “fall in Love with Nigeria”.

On Friday, the National Orientation Agency (NOA), launched its 2021 edition of ‘fall in Love with Nigeria’ campaign ahead of the annual Valentine’s Day celebration on February 14.

The campaign, streamed live across the six geographical zones of the country was themed: “Building a People of Peace: Fall in Love with Nigeria: Be Patriotic; Do Your Part to Keep Nigeria Secure and Safe from COVID-19”.

The Director General of NOA, Garba Abari, said that Nigerians had roles to play by being patriotic, shunning violence and adhering strictly to COVID- 19 protocols in order to make Nigeria great again.

“This is possible in an atmosphere where patriotic citizens are willing to trade off their comfort for the sake of the country’s interest.

 “NOA is leveraging on the persuasive feeling of love that Valentine brings to encourage citizens to engage in those things that will make Nigeria great,” he said.

“Charge members of your family, churches and mosques to embrace this message of love,”

“I appeal to youths to be patient with the government and shun acts that can lead to break down of law and order.

 “No progressive change can be achieved under a chaotic environment,”

“As a mark of love, you and I owe our family members, especially the elderly ones, the responsibility of observing COVID-19 protocols,” he appealed.
