“Though tribe and tongue may differ, in brotherhood we stand…”

Those words are like gunshots to the body of tribalists who have elevated ethnic loyalty OVER their Nigerianness.

They hate the fact that their kids will have to sing that line every day in school from now on.

Words are very powerful.

Just like Thought, they help create Reality.

We look forward to a more United and Cohesive federation.

Nigeria We Hail Thee. 🇳🇬

-Kiss the truth!

I no go lie, as a confirmed tribalist wey I be, that line dey always pinch my consciousness coz “In brotherhood we stand” is against what I stood for towards some part of some tribe.

How can I stand in brotherhood with someone with IPOB terroristic mindset for example? E go hard me walahi.

How would the old national anthem change the current situation in Nigeria?

We have so many clueless people as leaders in Nigeria

Good for you..

I love the lyrics of anthem. The thing is that the changing was made at the wrong time. Just like doing the right thing at the wrong time.
cost of living is getting high very day, changing the anthem will not make the price of goods to come down, Let us face reality. So if I Want to go and buy something and the price of the goods is too high, if I sing the old anthem will the seller reduce the price for me ?

It’s about fostering a greater sense of unity, belonging, and cohesion.

You can have the best economic policies on Earth, but if a spirit of disunity and tribalism reigns over your country, you will get nowhere.

Reverting to the old, infinitely more unifying anthem is deliberate, and a welcome act of social engineering.

So changing to old national anthem would reduce the price of garri right?

Unity by force and killing of innocent youths in East by your Nigeria government?

Tinupoo is a colossal failure, period.

That’s a very unsophisticated assessment.

Life is more complex than such crude simplemindedness.

So upon the problems facing the country, changing of the national anthem is the right priority bah?

Will the song stop politician from playing tribe card during election

Fostering unity is not by singing one nonsense anthem.

Actions speaks louder than voice.



Anyway we're not one and can never be one.


We don't share value system,What makes a great Nation are people that share common value system,the way Igbo man think is not the way yoruba man think,the way yoruba man think is not the way Hausa man think.


Some think leadership is the main problem of Nigeria,but no leadership is not,what I listed above is your Nigeria main problem.

mrvitalis:

I never said I want to share same country with them.

What I am just saying that it is not in my power to grant them Biafra. If it is left to me to decide Nigeria breakup, I won’t spend 5sec before giving the order.

But until when it break up, I will partake in the politics while understand each other diversity of tribe and thought.

I have no issues with this anthem! I find both its melody and lyrics to be quite enjoyable.

We need musical artists to get to work right away. We need the rock, blues, pop, reggae, and Afrobeat versions.

Unity by force and killing of innocent youths in East by your Nigeria’s government?

You don’t have to be a Nigerian.

You are welcome to LEAVE Nigeria.

We are not begging you to be part of Nigeria.

Understood?

There are 15 million Igbos in the north and 10 million in the west.

You clearly wish to eat from Nigeria’s wealth, so you MUST become a Nigerian.

Or you can all return to the south east and form your little, landlocked republic.

You are either IN or you are OUT.

Not one leg in, one leg out.

So we reverted to the old anthem because of traitors like you.

No, it is the not the right priority.

However, changing the national anthem won’t stop government in functioning if the want to function.

So whether they change it or not change it, it doesn’t affect anything whatsoever in terms of governance or lack of it.

—Remember we used the old one between 1960-1978, as at when OBJ changed it in 1979, ot does not impact governance negatively or positively

—Tinubu changing it in 2024 won’t still impact governance negatively or positively.

So no other important bills to debate on?

Can you proof that debating on this national anthem bill stop the legislature from debating on another bill?

I personally also think there is no rationale or logic as to why we should change the national anthem. But it has been changed, so I don’t cry over spilled milk.

Yiebo are always opposing and angry at any progressive news in Nigeria. Just imagine that witch coming out to say she will not single the new national anthem. Like, that one na her papa problem 😅

Exactly this is the reason ipob wants out you all care so much about politics little about governance

Supporting Buhari for 8 years already proved you know absolutely nothing about politics and governance... If you had any dignity you would never openly campaign for a candidate again
