Ozekhome lauds Tinubu over return to old National Anthem

Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mike Ozekhome says the Federal Government has done well by reverting to the old national anthem.

Ozekhome who was being interviewed on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Thursday, said though he was not a ‘fantastic fan’ of the Bola Tinubu administration but the decision to return to the old anthem was right.

He said: “I am not a fantastic fan of the government but if there is one thing I think they have gone right; they have gotten right, and I applaud them for it, it is the reintroduction of this national anthem”.

He also said: “I know that it was advertised that there would be a public hearing over the national anthem.

“That was how I heard. Nobody came to invite me specially and if you’re called, you should go and participate. If you don’t participate, you should not cry later.”

According to him, a change of anthem is not the same as that of the constitution which requires town hall meetings at the lowest levels.
