A Coalition of Non-Government Organisations (NGOs) says it will remodel the citizens of the country with the right attitude, leadership character, and followership patriotism to make Nigeria a functional and equalitarian society.
Mr Chris Nwani, the Convener of the group said this in Abuja on Thursday as it marks the 60th Independence of Nigeria.
Nwani said that the objective of the group was to re-orientate and encourage Nigerians to abandon the lingering attitude of the old Nigeria in favour of progressive socio-political and economic ideology.
According to him, it will create effective nation-building towards the birth of “New Nigeria”.
