Doherty Says Current Anthem Was Also Sung After Former Anthem at Lagos NDC Meeting

Funso Doherty says the crowd’s singing of Nigeria’s former national anthem at an NDC town hall in Lagos was spontaneous. He said the current anthem was also sung later, and that the organisers could not control the crowd’s reaction. The explanation followed reports that Peter Obi and others did not stand when invited to sing the current anthem, prompting the event anchor to switch to the former version.
