An old interview on the 62nd anniversary of Nigeria by Bola Ahmed Tinubu is going viral on twitter. He states that he preferred the old national anthem and if he had an opportunity will revert back to it.

Watch below:

Transcript:
Tinubu: We are one and one Nigeria, and we should be proud of our green.....
In fact if I had my way, I would bring back our old, first national anthem. That described us much much better. I don't know why we changed it. Its about service, it's about diversity, its about commitment to value and national building so that is my message....

Anything to ignite reorientation in Nigeria is a welcome development.

We have derailed so fast from the footsteps of greatness.

No Nation can succeed with this current path we are towing irrespective of who the president is.

Well, I like us going back since according to our elders, their time is better.

Since we started singing 'Arise, o compatriots ' tribalism started increasing so let's go to the old one.

We need to also go back to the 1963 constitution!

Of all the problems bedevilling this nation under his watch, this is what Tinubu’s and the rubberstamp NASS stooges are obsessed with @ present. Posterity will never be kind to them. Meanwhile; don't be distracted.

Nigeria we hail thee,
Our own dear native land,
Though tribe and tongue may differ,
In brotherhood we stand,
Nigerians all, and proud to serve
Our sovereign Motherland.

Our flag shall be a symbol
That truth and justice reign,
In peace or battle honour’d,
And this we count as gain,
To hand on to our children
A banner without stain.

O God of all creation,
Grant this our one request,
Help us to build a nation
Where no man is oppressed,
And so with peace and plenty
Nigeria may be blessed.



GOD BLESS NIGERIA 🇳🇬 🙏 ❤️

It cannot last, the anthem will be changed just the way Sanusi was changed and unchanged. This is why some people feel the old people are still stuck in the past, living in the delusion that yesterday was better than today instead of staying focused on building a better today and fantastic tomorrow. Young people are hungry because they have a stake in tomorrow, old people are hungry to preserve yesterday. When other African countries are thinking of removing every colonial legacy, we are saying it's nostalgia. What did all the Nkrumahs of the 60s then fight for if we are going back to what colonial rulers handed over to us It weakens the morale of the youth.

I now question how old the President really is and what democracy he fought for if he says, I don't know why we changed it. Its about service, it's about diversity, its about commitment to value and national building so that is my message....

His Justice Minister cautioned against ing this bill and the words like native and tribe were used by the colonialists to describe us. How many of them can sing to the National Assembly Are they feeling the pulse of the people

Mr President, it is not about you and your feelings. You don't know how much mental damage you do to people by saying it was a foreigner that composed the homage you pay to your country. I mean. Think carefully about it. Does that encourage pride of nationhood Is that renewed hope We changed it because it was not formed by Nigerians. Even other African countries are trying to change their names because of colonial legacies they want to remove.

He's just clueless and empty with misplaced priorities!
He went to launch the Lagos-Calabar coastal road and he retorted ''this is my day of bragging''.
So the project is all about him bragging with something! No depth, no substance!

Well. The national Assembly just made him happy.

Papayaayasager:
So he bribe his way to become the president just to bring back the old national anthem he so much loved, no wonder he doesn't have anything to offer
How come opposition (PDP, LP and NNPP) in national Assembly are not against it. You mean he bribed them too.
