THE National Orientation Agency, NOA, on Tuesday, disclosed that the Federal Executive Council, FEC, has approved its memoranda seeking to entrench value orientation, saying FEC sanctioned the first stanza of the national anthem for rendition at official functions, while the three stanzas should be for special occasions.
NOA said these occasions included Independence Day, Democracy day, Inauguration of the National Assembly, Children’s day, Armed Forces remembrance Day and workers day.
Her words: “In the last two weeks, NOA has achieved some milestone in its bid to re-engineer the focus of its campaigns nationwide. As you may be aware, we have been advocating for a fundamental approach to value orientation and attitudinal change campaign. Whereas slogans are good for the ear, it does not entrench these values in our hearts.
