The Nigerian Government has told citizens to seek permission before using the country’s national anthem.
The Federal Government stated this through Lanre Issa-Onilu, the Director General of the National Orientation Agency, NOA.
Issa-Onilu, in a statement released on Wednesday, October 8, said it is now compulsory to seek permission before the use of the Nigeria Anthem to avoid misinterpretation.
However, he did not state in what context permission should be sought before the anthem could be used.

Also, Issa-Onilu noted that the Nigerian flag is simply green, white and green with correct shade of green being Emerald 2.0.
