Proprietor wants pupils exposed to cultural diversities for peaceful coexistence

A school Proprietor, Mr Fidel Morah, has called for exposure of pupils to various cultural dances, indigenous foods and languages in an effort to promote Nigeria’s unity through its diversity.

Morah, the Proprietor of Fidel Madonna College of Excellence, Ibah, Lagos, said on Tuesday that Nigeria’s cultural diversity was unique and should be explored for the nation’s greatness.
The proprietor spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
He said that each tribe in the country had its distinct culture that should be tapped for national development.
“We must realise that the beauty of this country is the diversity that was destined by God; it is what makes us thick and unique from other countries."
“This should, therefore, be a unifying force instead of becoming a disadvantage,” he said.
“We need each other; that is why we should promote cultural dances and organise cultural days in schools to enlighten the young ones,’’ he told NAN.
He advised Nigerians to learn other Nigerian languages besides their dialects.
According to Morah, appreciation of one another’s culture would promote peaceful coexistence.
“When you can speak the language of another tribe, know its dance and foods, you will not want to be in conflict. We must co-exist,’’ he said.
Morah urged adequate exploitation of Nigeria’s culture for its socio-economic advancement.
“The government should collaborate with other stakeholders to make our culture an attraction for tourists."
“The numerous beautiful cultures, languages, dances and attires we have in this country are enough to earn the country a fortune if we tap into them".
“Foreigners will troop in to invest,” he said.
