Not surprised. I expected this to happen soon. Arise O Compatriots is engraved in our hearts. My hope is that the next President restores it.

Yeye President. Of all the things he could have changed. The people who voted for him have themselves to blame. Peter Obi wouldn't have done this.

There was a mix of drama and laughter in the UK during the recent Nigeria vs Ghana Unity Cup match, as many Nigerians in attendance couldn't sing the newly reinstated national anthem. Instead, they defaulted to singing the only version they knew — the now-replaced anthem, “Arise, O Compatriots.”

As soon as the instrumental for “Nigeria, We Hail Thee” began to play, many Nigerians looked confused. Some burst into laughter, clearly unfamiliar with the lyrics. Rather than staying silent, the crowd collectively began singing “Arise, O Compatriots” to the tune of the new anthem.

One Nigerian man was heard shouting in Pidgin English: “Wahala! Who sabi sing am? Na the one wey we know we go sing!” — meaning, “Problem! Who knows how to sing it? We’ll just sing the one we know!”

The stadium echoed with laughter and amusement as the crowd embraced the old anthem, creating a light-hearted and humorous moment during the event.

For context, Nigeria officially reverted to its original national anthem, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee,” on May 29, 2024, after President Bola Tinubu signed it into law. This anthem was originally used from 1960 to 1978 before being

Most of them left with Arise o compatriots

Who are the people that should consulted - you? The recommendation was under GEJ during national confab. Are you knowledgeable than the elders in that confab?

what has Jonah recommendation got to do with the execution...it is only in military dispensation by the virtue decree that the Head of State takes such a unilateral decision without public opinion but in a civilian dispensation that is bound by a constitution it has to go through public scrutiny , opinion and evaluation to test it's popularity before the change.....it was so disgusting to me watching the Super Eagles play against Zimbabwe without being able to sing while the Zimbabweans were singing with enthusiasm and voiciferouslly same thing also happened against Ghana in London.... that should tell you that it isn't popular

British 'Nigeria we hail thee' wherein is prayers for God to bind us as one and prosper us even in the face of all our overwhelming differences is far better than Obasanjo's wuruwuru to the answer 'Arise O Compatriots' that attempts to lie that we have already reached the goal of a united peaceful indivisible nation.

Nigeria we hail thee ends with 'And so with peace and plenty, Nigeria may be blessed'.

Obasanjo's Arise o compatriots ends with 'one nation bound in freedom, peace and unity'.

The question is where we ever one nation bound in freedom, peace and unity?'

Nigeria, nation of black people who understand nothing.

Pull out your phone, look it up and SING. Being in the UK definitely does not give people wisdom. Wisdom is profitable to direct.

Summary:
During the Nigeria vs Ghana Unity Cup match in the UK, many Nigerians were unable to sing the newly reinstated national anthem, "Nigeria, We Hail Thee." Confused by the unfamiliar lyrics, the crowd humorously sang the former anthem, "Arise, O Compatriots," instead. The moment sparked laughter and light-hearted reactions in the stadium.

People like you are always negative, imagine the sensitive issue about not knowing how to recite the new national anthem and you're here talking about tribalism 🤮

Brendaniel:
That's what tribalism and hate for a certain tribe has caused...

Thanks to Tinubu and those that supported him into power

No it is people like you that is always negative, if Tinubu was not president today do you think the anthem would have been changed?

Since the anthem was changed has Nigeria improved ?

Minor on major issues then major on nonsense issues...

Anything tinubu touches turns to failure.

If another sane person because president he will reverse the stup!d decision

We're on same page, I only advice you not to joke over serious topics
