The Federal Government through the National Orientation Agency has unveiled the standardize version of the revert National anthem.
The National Anthem was composed by a British Lillian Jean Williams and used between 1960 to 1978 in the country.
The new National Anthem:
Stanza One
Nigeria, we hail thee
Our own dear native land
Though tribes and tongues may differ
In brotherhood, we stand
Nigerians all, are proud to serve
Our sovereign Motherland.
Stanza Two
Our flag shall be a symbol
That truth and justice reign
In peace or battle, honour thee
And this we count as gain,
To hand on to our children
A banner without stain.
Stanza Three
O God of all creation
Grant this our one request,
Help us to build a nation
Where no man is oppressed,
And so with peace and plenty
Nigeria may be blessed.
