Ethan & Harriet: OBJ Angry at Low Awareness of Nigerian Cultural Heritage





 Ethan & Harriet is a Nigeria’s leading educational toy manufacturing company championing the promotion and preservation of African culture through educational toys and games held its official product launch on Thursday, August 25, 2016.


Former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, who was a Special Guest of Honour at the event applauded Ethan & Harriet Company for developing learning tools that will expose Nigerians across social status and background to the country’s cultural values and heritage.

Obasanjo lamented the poor level of awareness of the Nigerian history and cultural heritage, likening it to suffering a memory loss.

“Not knowing your history is like losing your memory. How can you be inspired when you don’t know your history; when you don’t know your sense of identity?” he asked.

Obasanjo called on Nigerians to imbibe cultural values and norms so as to promote the nation’s heritage. He regretted that present upbringing was disappointing, as many children do not know enough about their states of origin let alone the country.

Ethan & Harriet is an indigenous and leading educational toy provider championing the promotion and preservation of cultural heritage among Africans through fun and games. The company also launched their social impact initiative tagged ‘Ethan & Harriet Pals’, which is meant to impact educationally disadvantaged children in the society.
