This kind of thing often happens at international sporting events.

1) At Tunisia 2004, the organisers played Nigeria We Hail Thee, instead of Arise O Compatriots before Nigeria's semi-final match against Tunisia (we could see Kanu Nwankwo shouting "No!" when he heard the anthem).

2) The organisers of an olympics (I think it was Atlanta '96) hoisted a very strange looking nigerian flag. It had a very dark shade of green on it that made it unrecognisable. Nigerian officials complained during the flag raising ceremony and it was changed.

3) Organisers of the All Africa Games, Abuja 2003 did not have a CD of the Egyptian anthem at one of the events, so the stadium announcer got the egyptian that won the event to sing the anthem.

4) Organisers of the recent Copa America played the chilean anthem instead of the uruguayan anthem before the Uruguay vs Mexico match.

Nigerians Reacts Angrily Over Wrong National Anthem Played For Nigeria Team In RIO 2016

It is indeed pathetic for Brazil to make this kind of mistake. Rio 2016 have really started on the wrong note i must tell you. Playing a wrong National Anthem for a country Like Nigeria? I sincerely hope the Zikka Virus didn't affect the person in that control room ....lol. Why am i even laughing cuz this is not a laughing matter.

After the wrong Nigerian National anthem was played, Nigerians took to twitter to express their disappointment and displeasure at the organizers of the 2016 Rio Olympics. Read some of the comments ....

I find it amusing when people stay stuff like this. "A country like Nigeria."

Nigeria is a totally worthless country outside of Africa, and in the grand scheme of things.

Aren't we talking about the same country where its athletes at THIS SAME tournament are facing starvation from neglect?
I bet deep down they were happy they didn't have to listen to that trash.

I agree with your points but remember the golden rule "only Nigerians have the sole right to disrespect Nigeria" any foreign entity will be reacted to

Rio Olympics planning committee fails in their preparations and people blame the Nigerian Government.. grin grin grin grin grin grin



Somebody fhucked up in that control room, infact all the person had to do was google Nigerian National Anthem on a phone and play it through the phone sef.

The Nigerian Government had nothing to do with this shit.


And Nigeria is the greatest country in Africa but is also filled with the dumbest fhuckers in Africa.

Obviously, it wasn't an attempt at disrespect by the Brazilians, just good ol' third world lousiness.

That said, Nigerians can react all they want to third-party opinions online about Nigeria.
However, it won't change the harsh realities they must return to, as soon as they drop their phones and laptops.
