In his message on Tuesday, President Tinubu described Nigerian children as the pride and future of the nation, calling them the heartbeat of the country’s tomorrow and the custodians of future leadership, innovation, and progress.
He expressed profound joy in celebrating the day with them and emphasized the government’s constitutional and moral responsibility to safeguard their rights and nurture their dreams.
Speaking on the theme of this year’s celebration, “Stand Up, Speak Up: Building a Bullying-Free Generation,” the President underscored the need to foster a culture in which every child feels safe, respected, and heard. He condemned bullying and violence in all forms, both in physical environments and digital spaces, noting that such behaviours have no place in today’s Nigeria.
