National Orientation Agency has assured Nigerians that a standardised version of the national anthem would be issued after due consultation with stakeholders.
The Director-General of the Agency, Malam Lanre Issa-Onilu, gave the assurance in a statement issued by the agency’s Deputy Director of press, Mr Paul Odenyi on Tuesday in Abuja.
Issa-Onilu stated this after several versions of the anthem appeared on social media.
“Our COMOS whom we ordered to learn the new national anthem have come up with feedback that many of our people are eager to learn and promote the new anthem.
However, they are confused and wonder if the ones they find online are the correct version. They have asked questions about which of the stanzas is the national prayer, ” Issa-Onilu said.
The Director-General assured Nigerians that a decision on which stanzas to be adopted as national prayer would be taken after the necessary approval procedure.
He advised government agencies who seek to play the anthem at their functions to revert to the Agency for the official copy of the new Anthem.
