National Anthem Saga: NOA Misleading Nigerians – Akpabio
By Onota Oghenevwede
The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, on Tuesday, says the National Orientation Agency is incorrectly educating Nigerians on the recently reintroduced old National Anthem.
Akpabio pointed out that the document being distributed by the agency differed from the version that had been authorized by the Senate.
“Take note of what we have here; what we have is different from what the NOA has”, he said
“Where we have Nigerians ‘all’ are proud to say, they have Nigerians all and proud to say.
“Also, where we have ‘though’ tribes and tongues may differ, they have ‘those’ tribe and tongues”
“Also at the end where we have ‘Nigeria shall be blessed’, they have Nigeria ‘may’ be blessed”, Akpabio added
“We are using shall, which is a compulsion that this country shall be blessed, so, tell the National Orientation Agency to drop what they are circulating now,” he said
