President Bola Tinubu has officially signed the bill reverting the old national anthem into law. Tinubu gave his approval on Wednesday morning, following the constitutional procedures required to enact the law.
Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced this development while speaking to lawmakers during the ongoing joint session of the National Assembly. The bill aims to replace the current anthem with the former one, which was adopted at Nigeria’s independence on October 1, 1960. However, it was replaced in 1978 during the Olusegun Obasanjo military regime.
