“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. 🇳🇬

This ain't making any sense.

I am first an Igbo man, all other factors are secondary.

Unity is not by force.

Unity comes with reason but in the case of Nigeria no single reason.

Unity by blood no
Unity by reason no
Unity of purpose no
Unity by ethnicity no
So what's the essence of the unity.

I might agree if you say unity by corruption and looting.

The beauty of life is that if you have enough wisdom and a working brain, nobody can force you against your will. But here you are complaining like a rape victim who was forced against her will to do something she never wanted to do.

LegendHero:
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.

that’s not the right way to build unity. It’s a square peg in a round hole

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.

Why did Afrobeat come last...just thinking aloud

I always marvel when people display stupidity.
Everyone in this country wants it's good.
Every form of agitation is a direct consequence of injustice or oppression by the government on particular sections of the country.

Singing the lyrics of an anthem will not bring down the exchange rate neither will it reduce the price of food items if all our leaders do is to loot the treasury and suffer the masses.

When you are done singing the anthem,go to a filling station and tell the attendant that you are a patriotic citizen and she should sell petrol to you at N100.

There are millions of Nigerians in USA,UK, Canada and Europe, but you have Nigeria

But cannot understand there may be millions of Igbos in different parts of Nigeria, but Igbos have their own seperate country?

NOT THE SAME THING AT ALL.

If you people secede from Nigeria, which is a treasonous and traitorous act, you will be DEPORTED EN MASSE from Nigerian states BACK to Igboland.

In your TENS OF MILLIONS.

You will become FOREIGNERS AND ILLEGAL ALIENS in every Nigerian city and state, and required to show your residence permit to every police officer on request. You will be Hounded out by Nigerian police and people.

You cannot eat from two plates.

Woe betide you if you are in the North. Those ones that have been waiting to drive you away since, you now declare SECESSION and think they will just let you sit down there with them? 15 million of you?

Mr Man, if you think you will secede and still be rolling around in Lagos, Abuja, Kano in your millions as it is now, you are the most deluded people on the face of the earth.

A very small price to pay for freedom from a British colonial contraption. The world is big place and Nigeria is just one country

Thank you sir.

After all the whole world is just waiting to receive and welcome an ethnicity of drug dealing, narcissistic African malcontents in their tens of millions.

Keep fantasising rubbish.

Since the world is a big place, why did you settle in the north and west in your tens of millions when you could have moved out into the “big world out there”?

Stop unity begging, Lord Lugard cannot come from Europe to give you your country that has never worked since 1960

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 there are 100 million lgbos in the north, 1 billion lgbos in the west. Population minister

SO WHY ARE YOU SETTLED IN THE NORTH AND WEST IN YOUR TENS OF MILLIONS?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE AMONG PEOPLE YOU HATE AND CANNOT STAND?

If you feel this way, you should not be in their land in such huge numbers.

You should be in UMUAHIA, ENUGU, ONITSHA, AWKA, ABA, AND ABAKALIKI.

You don’t even need a new country to actualise your sentiments.

It’s called voting with your feet.

YOU ARE FREE RIGHT NOW TO DEPART EN MASSE, since you are not compatible with them.

So what are you doing on THEIR land, yet you are complaining loudly about them every day?

Who sent you there?

YOU are the unity beggars.

YOU fled Igboland in your tens of millions to go and live among Yorubas and Hausas, and then you call THEM “unity beggars”?

Explain that one to me!

If you want to secede, it’s not by insulting Nigerians on Nairaland and doing sit at home.

You get your Igbo reps in the National Assembly to table a motion for secession.

Simple!

They sang that anthem up to 1966 when they had the two coups, then they followed it up in 1967 by a war that claimed millions of lives. Do you now see how fallacious your submission is? I think you are the real tribalist to even think this way. There is nothing wrong with Arise O Compatriots...
