Nigerian activist and politician, Aisha Yesufu, has publicly rejected the recently adopted national anthem, ‘Nigeria We Hail Thee’.
In a video which is presently making the rounds on all
social media platforms, the activist who was in an event, chose to sit while
others were standing during the recitation of the new anthem.
In the trending video
sighted by NigerianEye, most guests at the event were astonished by Aisha’s
display.
While sharing a video clip that captured the moment on her
official X handle, Aisha wrote, “Not my anthem”.
Recall that the National Assembly recently
passed the National Anthem Bill 2024 despite the controversy that surrounded
it.
President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday signed the bill into law,
jettisoning the ‘Arise O Compatriot’ anthem that was adopted in 1978.
