Moving the motion, Chima noted that good morals and proper orientation remained indisputable basic components of child upbringing and training.

He added that a lack of it, especially in young people, would result in societal decay, while recalling that moral instructions was a compulsory subject in Nigeria schools curricula in the past.

The lawmaker noted that due to the removal of moral instructions from the school system, the current generation of youths lack the benefits of such lessons, and may end up as nuisances in the society.

He stated that with the increasing rate of violence and various forms of immorality in recent times, there was need for reintroduction and enforcement of the teaching of moral lessons and orientation.
