Moment Super Eagles recited old anthem during WCQ clash against Benin (video)

The Super Eagles of Nigeria were seen reciting the old national anthem, ‘Arise O’ Compatriot’ minutes before their clash against Benin Republic.

The host played the old national anthem for the Nigerian team, with some social media users suggesting that Benin Republic is unaware that the country’s national anthem has changed.

President Bola Tinubu on May 29, signed the National Anthem Bill 2024 into law.

The bill reinstated the old anthem, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.”

Meanwhile, Coach Finidi George has made three changes to the starting line up of the Super Eagles facing Benin Republic.

Stanley Nwabali retains his position in goal for the team.

Tanimu Benjamin, Semi Ajayi, Calvin Bassey and Bright Osayi-Samuel make up the back four.

While Raphael Onyedika replaces Fisayo-Dele Bashiru with Alex Iwobi and Wilfred Ndidi to pair him.

In attack, Terrem Moffi takes the place of Paul Onuachu, Samuel Chukwueze replaces Kelechi Iheanacho while Ademola Lookman keeps his place in the starting eleven.
