NCCE’s Deputy Regional Director in the Oti Region, Gagakuma Setriakor says patriotism is one key factor needed for the development of any country.
According to him, no great nation in the world attained that status without citizens exhibiting traits of patriotism.
Mr Gagakuma said this at an orientation programme for freshmen of the Dambai College of Education in the Oti Region.
He mentioned that every citizen is mandated to exhibit patriotic deeds in order to support nation-building efforts, as espoused in Article 41 of the 1992 Constitution of Ghana.
Mr. Gagakuma reiterated that sacrifice is a key ingredient of patriotism and called on the fresh students at the Dambai College of Education to contribute their quota in their various capacities for the development of Ghana without considering individual benefits.
