FG to supplant unfamiliar kid’s shows with Nigerian substance that advances values

The Central Government has communicated worry over the rising reception of “unfamiliar perspectives” among Nigerian youngsters, ascribed to their openness to unfamiliar kid’s shows.

The Chief General of the Public Direction Organization (NOA), Lanre Onilu, revealed this in Bauchi on Friday during the send off of the mission to advance the Public Hymn and the Public Worth Sanction.

Onilu, addressed by the Public Chief, PRS (NOA), Nura Yusuf Kobi, raised worries about the invasion of unfamiliar societies into Nigerian homes through animation characters.

He uncovered that President Bola Tinubu had supported the supplanting of unfamiliar kid’s shows with Nigerian substance to advance public qualities.

“We are concerned that Nigeria is bringing forth youngsters with unfamiliar ways of behaving. We have seen that our children gain numerous unfamiliar perspectives through kid’s shows from different nations. We will supplant them with neighborhood kid’s shows that will advance our personality and culture so those presently displayed on GOtv, StarTimes, and the rest will be subbed,” Onilu said.

He further commented, “Nigeria’s picture has been severely depicted abroad as a nation of hijackers, criminals, fear based oppressors, fraudsters, etc. We need to rethink our character in light of the fact that, right now, it’s not possible for anyone to obviously characterize Nigeria’s personality. Previously, during the initiative of Boss Obafemi Awolowo, Boss Nnamdi Azikiwe, and Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Nigeria had a clear cut character.”

“Tragically Nigerians currently celebrate when somebody returns things or cash at air terminals to their legitimate owners, as though the individual has accomplished something remarkable. In ordinary conditions, each Nigerian ought to tell the truth, yet because of late occasions, large numbers of us have lost our ethical compass,” he regretted.

Onilu made sense of that the mission expects to reclassify the country’s character, change the story, and deter Nigerians from hiding their personality while abroad.

Prior, the Bauchi State Facilitator of NOA, Mrs. Theresa Omaga, explained on the organization’s arrangements to expand the mission across the 20 neighborhood government region of the state. She expressed that the mission would run at the same time at both the state and neighborhood levels.
