Speaking at the unveiling of the book, a co-organiser of the event, Dr Dayo Keshi, said partnering with NICO was to further implement and enhance cultural awareness in school children.

She noted that the foundation developed series of storybooks in which the diverse Nigerian cultural heritage was showcased to invoke interest in children and give knowledge of the rich Nigerian culture.

“The book – Tales on the Diverse Shades of Culture – is to present diverse Nigerian cultures in simplified fictional literature for school children, in the vanguard of building their knowledge on our Nigerian cultures,” she said.

She added that 1,000 copies of the book would be distributed to LEA primary schools in Abuja, even as she solicited support of Nigerians to promote knowledge of culture by credible alliance with the project.
