Singer Teniola Apata, popularly known as Teni, has reminisced former national anthem, stating how it made her childhood beautiful.
Teni noted how she made lots of pleasant memories and moments with the old national anthem.
According to report, President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday signed the National Anthem Bill 2024 into law to reinstate the old anthem, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.”
Following the verdict, Teni said she would miss the replaced National Anthem, “Arise, O Compatriots.”
On her X handle, Teni wrote: “Arise o compatriots, I’ll miss you, thank you for so many childhood memories. till we meet again, love SM.”
‘Arise, O compatriots’ was adopted as Nigeria’s National Anthem in 1978.
The anthem was performed by the Nigeria Police Band under the directorship of B. E. Odiasse.
By the implication of the National Anthem Bill 2024 which was recently signed into law by President Tinubu, ‘Arise, O compatriots’ has now officially been replaced by the old anthem, ‘Nigeria, We Hail Thee’ as Nigeria’s National Anthem.
