Singer Brymo has commended President Bola Tinubu for signing the National Anthem Bill 2024 into law, reinstating the old anthem, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.”
In a post shared on social media, Brymo stated that the reinstated anthem features improved lyrics and context.
Taking to his Instagram account, Brymo wrote: “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is now officially my G.O.A.T. of all-time Nigerian presidents.
“Read the lyrics of the new national anthem; first stanza is all you need; it asserts Nigeria for ‘motherland’ and now Africa can be fatherland and be the symbol of polygamy and we can all focus on one family unit each finally.
“And my favourite part: ‘In brotherhood, we stand.’ We are all now members of the greatest cult on earth. Nigeria is now the only brotherhood every boy and ambitious girl must belong to in this country! I am very happy!”
On Wednesday, May 29, 2024, President Bola Tinubu signed the National Anthem Bill 2024 into law, allowing for the immediate adoption of the new anthem.
However, some celebrities, such as Kate Henshaw, Comedian Igosave, and Joeboy, have expressed concerns about the President's priorities in the midst of economic hardship.
