OFFICE OF THE STATE DIRECTOR

National Orientation Agency (NOA), Kogi State Directorate,

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: STAY VIGILANT AGAINST COVID-19

TO ALL KOGI STATE INDIGENES AND RESIDENTS,

The National Orientation Agency (NOA), Kogi State Directorate, wishes to draw the attention of the general public to recent reports confirming a new case of COVID-19 in Cross River State. While the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) and health authorities are actively managing the situation, this development serves as a critical reminder that the virus remains a public health reality.
Kogi State, being a major gateway linking the North and South of Nigeria, experiences high vehicular and human traffic.

Therefore, it is imperative that we take proactive steps to prevent a resurgence within our borders

Our Call to Action:
In the interest of public safety, the State Director urges all citizens to re-adopt the following preventive measures:

Regular Hygiene:
Wash your hands frequently with soap and running water, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

Respiratory Etiquette:
Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your elbow when coughing or sneezing.

Social Responsibility:If you feel unwell or exhibit symptoms such as persistent cough, fever, or difficulty breathing, please self-isolate and seek medical advice immediately.

Vigilance in Public Spaces: Maintain a safe distance in crowded areas and consider wearing a face mask in high-risk environments.

A Note on Information:
We urge all "Kogites" to remain calm and avoid spreading unverified information or "fake news" that could cause unnecessary panic. Always rely on official updates from the Federal Ministry of Health, the NCDC, and the Kogi State Ministry of Health.
Let us "Do the Right Thing" by protecting ourselves, our families, and our communities. Our health is our collective wealth.

Signed:
Mrs Aileku Ayedime.
State Director,
National Orientation Agency (NOA),
Kogi State Directorate.

NOA AND NYCN KOGI STATE TO COLLABORATE ON NATIONAL VALUES REORIENTATION,TACKLING YOUTH RESTIVENESS AND GET RICH QUICK SYNDROME AMONG KOGI YOUTHS.

Earlier today,the Acting State Director of National Orientation Agency (NOA), Pastor Augustine Ogbonnikan, met with executives of the Nigerian Youth Council (NYCN) Kogi State chapter, led by Chairman Abdulrahaman Abdulmumini and Treasurer Abdullahi A. Madami, to discuss initiatives targeting the youth population.

During the meeting, Pastor Ogbonnikan highlighted the government's policies aimed at empowering youths, including the 7 for 7 values charter embedded in the Nigeria Identity Project. He emphasized the benefits of the NELFUND and Students Loans schemes, designed to provide access to quality education and reduce dropout rates.

The NOA Director also expressed concern about the rising cases of "get rich quick" syndrome, Yahoo-Yahoo, and ritual killings among Nigerian youths, describing these trends as detrimental to national development.

In response, NYCN Kogi State Chairman Abdulrahaman Abdulmumini echoed Pastor Ogbonnikan's concerns, stressing that "real money doesn't come quick, it's a product of hard work and resilience" - urging youths to focus on legitimate opportunities. He also raised concerns about skyrocketing house rents, impacting youths' living conditions, and proposed a stakeholder meeting with NOA and NYCN to address the issue.

Pastor Ogbonnikan welcomed the suggestion and invited NYCN to collaborate with NOA in sensitizing youths on the dangers of vices and promoting national unity and value reorientation.

Chairman Abdulmumini pledged his support for NOA's initiatives and promised to collaborate on future programs focusing on youths.

The meeting underscores the commitment of both organizations to promote youth empowerment and national development.
