Every official and public event must begin with the National Pledge, which President Bola Tinubu has mandated be recited after the National Anthem.
He stated that this is necessary to uphold the highest standards of reverence for the national symbols, fortify love and devotion to the nation, and safeguard Nigeria's culture and distinctive personality.
Presidential spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale, in a statement on Thursday said: “President Bola Tinubu has directed the mandatory recitation of the National Pledge after the National Anthem at every official and public engagement.”
According to the press release, the President emphasized how important it is to uphold the country's norms, advance its ideals, and respect its values.
“Before I left home this morning, I asked for a printout of the National Pledge, and we have to relaunch it again at this event. The relaunch is about being committed to the values, greatness, and hope of our country.
“It is our pledge to Nigeria, our country, to be faithful, loyal, and honest. To serve Nigeria with all your strength - we saw it on the field of play yesterday. We were all rejoicing.
“Everyone one of us loves victory. We love to win. When you are positive and you are hopeful, Nigeria is winning.
“We did not say it will be Eldorado and smooth all the way. But we are confident that this country will excel in all ramifications. We will defend our unity and uphold Nigeria's glory in every way possible because we are Nigerians, and we have no other country," the president said.
