Senate President Akpabio claims reinstating the old national anthem could prevent insecurity in Nigeria.

Senate President Akpabio claimed that the reintroduced national anthem, "Nigeria, We Hail Thee," could have prevented banditry and insecurity if Nigeria had retained it. The anthem was reinstated after the National Assembly passed the National Anthem Bill 2024 to revert to the old anthem, which was abolished in 1978. Akpabio argued that the old anthem would foster unity, patriotism, and love among Nigerians.
