Spot on, Mr Chukwumerije. "What needs to change is the behaviour of political leaders. They need to stop the greed, stop the corruption and start living the values the current national anthem preaches."
National Anthem is not the problem. It is walking the talk that manifests good governance. In fact, let there be no anthem if those who govern at all levels know they are servant leaders.
Now that they succeeded in changing the anthem, they should change the present dollar to naira rate, and Nigeria economy to what it was back then. Then I will respect their personalities
We have the worst set of leaders in history. I do not recognise this old anthem! I will forever recite "Arise o Compatriots..." this is the Nigerian anthem composed by a Nigerian and this is the one i recognise not the one composed by a British!
This Tee Nubu is a Genius. With the old national anthem, all our problems will be solved. There is power in a word !!! The time of oil-boom will come back. A cow will be sold for 50 Naira. 1 Dollar will be exchanged for 70 kobo. A 404 car will be sold for 400 Naira. A new beetle car will be sold for 2000 Naira. Nigeria will be paying workers' salaries in many foreign countries because we wouldn't know what to do with our money. Gi Ants of Africa will be reborn. Yes, Gi Ants of Africa. Yes, giddy Ants of Africa ? Oh, no !!! This Tee Nubu is Genius. Even, great God will come down from the sky and make everybody feel high. The New Nigeria of everyone's dream will be a palpable reality. Unemployment will be over. Infant mortality will be over. Best schools, best hospital, bridges, best roads will be constructed. Old men will defy their old age and dance break-dance like frenzied youths, spinning with their heads on the ground. Every Nigerian will dance to the rhythms of talking drums, after Tee Nubu, with his majestic steps. It will be a time of thrills, real thrills and dreams. Fishes will appear in all the seas, streams and rivers. Unknown birds will flood the sky. Unknown but edible fruits will be everywhere. Even, the dinosaurs and other once-extinct animals will appear in all the hills and caves in Nigeria. What a wonderful time ! Old men Olympic games will be introduced. Tee Nubu will represent Nigeria in boxing, weight-lifting, high jump and relay races. For the relay races, the other two people will be Babangida and Yakubu Gowon . Tee Nubu will run the first and last legs. You know, normally, there are 4 Athletes. He will begin it and give the baton to Babangida who, in turn, will give the baton to Gowon. Tee Nubu will go back to take the final leg. It will be allowed in the new era. In that new era, everything will be possible. The Trio will bring glory to Nigeria. All hail Tee Nubu. Tee Nubu, all hail.
Those guys don't have jobs to do. Why don't they start by changing the Nigerian name? They are so disconnected from an average man on the street of Nigeria.
Britain ran Nigeria better. Nigeria is a British contruct and worked while under British hands. It would become a modern country if become independent in 1999.
The one that the British made for you aligns with the government they left behind. ‘Though tribes and tongues may differ, in unity we stand’ tell me how that is not far better than what you have now. It is this denial of the fact that we differ from one another that is causing the backwardness we are going through now. If we agree that we differ then we can put all on the table and then reach an agreement. So the young man here is not making sense.
The Nigerian government is a very useless government. Instead of finding workable economic strategies to fix the ailing economy, and better the lives of innocent suffering Nigerians the national Anthem is now a subject. What has the national Anthem, old or new got to do with the survival of a society? The Nigerian government is seriously sick. This is nothing short of Distraction of the Attention of Nigerians from reality. A society will conveniently pay allegiance to the Flag, or the Anthem only if they have a responsible, and responsive government. God will judge the Nigerian government in his wrath.
People don't know Nigeria is still a British colony. If Prince Harry's recent visit and the revert to the British composed Nigerian anthem doesn't tell you that. Then what else will. Tinubu is working well from his employers.
Any learned person will know that this is not our major priority. Yes. I agree. But I ask a simple question: Is it bad to bring back the old National Anthem or we just want to complain even if this is a good move? Don't even use the excuse of "Na Oyinbo man write am", because virtually everything we do since this country was created is to copy the white man. From our way of life, official language, education, dressing, to everything, we copy from the white man. Then why is the old National Anthem written by a white man an exception from all we have been copying from the oyinbos? Let us learn this anthem in peace and stop feeling as if we know the country's problems that needs to be solved, and this old anthem is not our major priority. Any body with common sense knows that. Go and learn the anthem it has been passed into law and stop making noise.
Kai ! Who do us this ?? A people with back and forth mentality. One step forward three steps backwards. Wetin come concern national anthem with Nigeria's numerous pressing problems ?? Kai, devil is a liar.
This man hit the nail on the head, in less than two minutes.

May God bless you for your true talk
Spot on, Mr Chukwumerije. "What needs to change is the behaviour of political leaders. They need to stop the greed, stop the corruption and start living the values the current national anthem preaches."

Let us go back to the regional government

If we agree that we differ then we can put all on the table and then reach an agreement. So the young man here is not making sense.
So you know you differ, but you carry cows from northern Nigeria to southern Nigeria to graze ? When in their culture they abhor such ?
The Nigerian government is a very useless government.

The new national anthem sounds like church song, it doesn't make sense.
This administration should stop chasing rats

Nigeria is just a joke.

A people with back and forth mentality. One step forward three steps backwards.
