The watchwords ‘Unity, Work, Vigilance’ became ubiquitous during Frelimo’s socialist years, appearing in the press, speeches, murals and official documents. ‘Unity’ highlighted nation-building and collectivism, ‘Work’ the value and importance of the labour required to build the Sociedade Nova (New Society) and ‘Vigilance’ the need for the Homem Novo (New Man) to guard against internal and external enemies.
