Calling for a collective moral migration, the NASFAT President urged all Nigerians to shun societal vices and embrace behaviors that foster national unity and social cohesion.
He further encouraged citizens to live as good ambassadors of Nigeria both at home and in the diaspora, emphasizing the need for integrity, love, and commitment to the progress of the nation.
