NOA Adamawa Holds “RealNigerianIdentity” Roadshow to Promote National Values Charter.

By Gloria Abutu

 

The National Orientation Agency (NOA) in Adamawa State has held a roadshow to promote Nigeria’s National Values Charter and inspire citizens to embrace essential national values.

The event, led by Acting Director Mr. Richard Bala Dangari, featured the hashtag “RealNigerianIdentity” and highlighted the “7 for 7” framework.

This framework encourages residents to adopt the Citizens Code, encompassing principles of discipline, duty of care, tolerance, leadership, transparency, environmental awareness, and resilience.

“What informed the development of this blueprint is to encourage Nigerians to galvanize the right set of attitudes,” he stated.

He emphasised that the nation’s economic prosperity and social wellbeing are strongly linked to the values and attitudes of its people.

“The wellbeing and prosperity of the nation does not solely depend on the economic successes or potentials of the nation, but on the values and attitudes of the people,”he noted.

He added that adhering to these principles is vital for building a stable and unified society.

According to Dangari, “We believe that when the 7 for 7 is respected, we can have a stable and sustainable society. Until we get it right as the level of leadership and citizenship, then it is logically impossible to build the nation.”

For the nation to thrive, he noted, citizens should embody these values daily, while leaders are called to uphold the Nigerian Promise—a commitment to equality, democracy, entrepreneurship, peace, inclusivity, freedom, and meritocracy.

He also noted that staff of the agency are set to extend their outreach to schools, public places and other institutions across the state in the coming weeks.
“NOA will go to different places to educate you on the national values charter. When we come to you, please give us necessary cooperation. As a people, we have the responsibility to nurture and build our society,” he appealed.

The roadshow, which began at the Unity Flyover, passed through key areas including Atiku Abubakar Way, Hospital Road, and Mustapha Aminu Way, and concluded at the Jimeta Ultra Modern Market, attracting a diverse audience along the route.

NOA’s campaign reflects a collective call to action for both citizens and leaders to prioritize shared national values, underscoring the role that these principles play in strengthening Nigeria’s national identity and fostering a thriving and resilient nation.
