Actually I have always preferred the first anthem and I have never forgotten it except for the last two lines. This was the anthem sang in the 70s in our nursery schools and all schools across Nigeria. But that being said, are our leaders assuring us that; - this revert will solve all our problems? - the price of foodstuffs will dive downwards with the old anthem? - most importantly it will guaranty the stoppage of the LOOTING OF OUR DEAR NATION'S TREASURY? IF THE ANSWER ABOVE IS YES, THEN BY ALL MEANS LET US START SINGING THE OLD ANTHEM ....BUT IF NO...MAY THE ALMIGHTY GOD JUDGE THEM ALL. 2 Likes |

If the president so much love to replace the national anthem; why can't he call for entries for a new one written by Nigerians? I read things like this and I begin to wonder whether there's something wrong with the brain of the black man on the African continent. Why should a so called independent country adopt a national anthem written by a foreigner? I wonder why no matter how so called high we may achieve but the brain is still in chains!! Is this the way the black race would remain forever? 3 Likes |

The current National Anthem is a post civil war Anthem. "Call Obey" "To Serve" which appeared more than once. "Labour of our heroes past"... Same The reason why the anthem means nothing to current Nigerians and most people don't care about it being changed or not is because current Nigeria can relate with those sentiments. |
