Underscoring the theme for the year, “Unite to reverse the impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Children,” she said the day is usually observed on 27th May of every year with various activities and events adding that it is a period when general populace is sensitized on the rights of children to survival, development, protection and participation.








“The theme is very apt as it is important for all stakeholders to join forces to protect, keep our children safe and minimize the harmful effects of COVID-19 pandemic on children most especially those in already disadvantaged or vulnerable situations, for them to realize their full potentials despite the odds staring in their faces, she said.”
