Former Governor of Edo State, Adam Oshiomhole, swiftly came to the ‘rescue’ of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, when he unconsciously raised up his hands while singing the national anthem in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital yesterday.

There was a mild drama yesterday in Port Harcourt when the APC flagbearer subconsciously raised up his two hands, holding a staff while other party chieftains, including his running mate, Kashim Shettima, kept a straight face reciting the national anthem.

Oshiomhole noticed the blunder and did not hesitate to call the APC presidential candidate to order during the campaign rally aired on national television.

Watch the video clip below as aired on TVC News.

“Why are u supporting a man who has Amnesia, to lead a country of over 200 million people? E no suppose better for all of you.

Phrant Shaibu, a Special Assistant to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, wrote: “@OfficialABAT raised his two hands 2day in Port Harcourt when it was time to recite the National anthem..Oshiomhole had to drag his hand down.

Why does @OfficialAPCNg want to punish Nigerians with this man? Is the suffering not too much?

Uche @ubig1 – “Oshiomole just denied us another wonderful skit by Tinubu.

“Na only Oshiomhole get true love for him , other no dey even send to correct am! But Oshiomhole was there this time and he correct baba and showed him how to do it, and he corrected himself! The funniest thing is he does not recite it,” – King Jay Jay [@KingJay_Jay1] wrote while reacting to another netizen who claimed Tinubu raising his hands up during the national anthem was a trademark.

Another netizen, Draybeats [@Dstring17], defended Tinubu saying: “He can do it anytime he desires but during the national anthem means disrespect, sir.”

Michael Dare @mikedar007, however sees nothing wrong with Tinubu raising his hands while singing the national anthem. He said: “So what’s the issue here? Why una dey always make nonsense issue, not of nothing issue because of simple mistake? Atiku, Obi has made more mistakes but una no go ever talk about that one.”

Babatunde Ogunniran @TYBabatunde wrote: “He even rented Yoruba crowd in PH. Who is the one shouting Ori yin wanbe?

Bartha David @BarthaDavid2 “People dey talk about this national anthem, una forget the one when he lick microphone with his tongue.”
