Every year on May 27th, Nigeria joins the world in celebrating Children’s Day, a special occasion dedicated to honoring the country’s young ones and recognizing their place as the cornerstone of its future. More than just a public holiday, Children’s Day serves as a call to action: to protect, nurture, and invest in the next generation.
The idea of Children’s Day traces back to 1925, when it was first proclaimed during the World Conference on Child Welfare in Geneva. Decades later, Nigeria officially adopted May 27th as its Children’s Day in 1964, establishing a national tradition that combines both celebration and reflection.

This year’s theme "Tapping the Untapped Natural Treasure” shines a spotlight on the often-overlooked potential of Nigerian children. Describing them as a “natural treasure,” it challenges the nation to recognize and nurture their talents, creativity, and intelligence. It’s a call to harness this human wealth untapped, yet rich with promise for national development and global impact.

As we mark Children's Day 2025, let it be more than a tradition. Let it be a renewed commitment to empower every child, to give them the tools, education, and encouragement they need to thrive. Because in the heart of every child lies the future of the nation and the hope of a better tomorrow.
