The rising immoral "sign out" practice among secondary school and higher education students nationwide has been condemned by the federal government.
Speaking at an enlightenment campaign on Government policies, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, the director general of the National Orientation Agency, or NOA, emphasized the importance of collaboration between all parties involved and the federal government in order to put an end to the immoral trend.
Represented by Mrs. Ayisola Olowoyo, the Director of Human Resources, he explained the current situation, in which secondary school and university students use the sign-out to commit immoral acts, and the necessity for everyone to take on responsibility.
His words, “The Federal Government is concerned with the growing trend of immorality among students across the country. Celebrating success is good, but for young people to start immorality, exposing and touching private parts within educational institutions is against national values.
“One of the reasons the federal government would be launching national charter is to instill discipline and values in our daily lives across all sectors.
“Parents and school administrators should also take serious steps towards cautioning their children and students from immorality, especially in schools.”
Also speaking, Mr Adebiyi Stephen, Osun State Director of NOA, stated that in order to reduce the incidence of flooding, the agency has been working with the State Government to educate residents living in flood-prone areas on how to avoid loss of life and property.
