Lillian Jean Williams penned the lyrics to Nigeria’s national anthem, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee,” in 1959, while the music was composed by Frances Berda.
Although it was adopted as the national anthem on October 1, 1960, it was later replaced by “Arise, O Compatriots” in 1978.
However, in a recent development, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee” was reinstated as the national anthem on May 29, 2024. See lyrics below:
Nigeria, we hail thee,
FOOD GRADE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL
Ultrafine, exceptionally adaptive charcoal.
Supports detoxification/ removal of toxins
Supports occasional intestinal gas
Non toxic teeth whitening alternative
Treats gout and inflammation
Cures mouth odour
Treats grievous wounds and sores.
Treats diarrhoea
When applied on the armpits, detoxifies against breast lump.
When applied on the pad, treats vagina itching and infection
A paste mixed with honey gives a glowing soft face
Helps prevent hangover
Helps prevent cellular damage to the kidneys

Our own dear native land,
Though tribe and tongue may differ,
In brotherhood, we stand,
Nigerians all, and proud to serve
Our sovereign Motherland.
Our flag shall be a symbol
That truth and justice reign,
In peace or battle honour’d,
And this we count as gain,
To hand on to our children
A banner without stain.
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.
